Leading Alignment Ecosystem Development (AED) in order to contribute to increasing the probability that humanity’s transition to a world with artificial superintelligence goes well.
Nope, good catch. We had them listed under AISafety.com/funders but I've added them to the map too now. Thanks!
We recently added a Stay Informed page to AISafety.com which lists our top recommended information sources for staying up to date with AI/AI safety – I suggest checking it out for more ideas on podcasts, newsletters etc to follow.
One challenge in AI safety field-building is that otherwise-useful resources – like lists of courses or funders or local groups – generally become outdated over time. We’ve tried to solve this by collecting a bunch of resources together at AISafety.com and dedicating considerable bandwidth to keeping them updated.
Until recently, this maintenance has been largely ad hoc, making additions and changes as we learned of them. To ensure nothing slips through the cracks, we’ve now added a schedule for doing thorough sweeps through the entire database for each resource. Below is our current plan:
We’re also continuing to make immediate updates whenever we become aware of them. In other words, this is just the minimum you can expect for regular maintenance.
If you spot a correction or want to add something new, please get in touch via the form on the relevant resource page. Our goal is to keep AISafety.com’s resources as accurate and up to date as possible.
Thanks Tristan :)
AFAIK the closest to this for EA generally is effectivealtruism.org, which links to some resources.
I can imagine something more comprehensive (like an AISafety.com for EA) perhaps being useful. One thing that might be interesting is a landscape map of the main orgs and projects in EA – we'd be happy to share the code of the AI safety map if you chose to explore that.
I can confirm that we are indeed continuing to maintain the AI safety part of the database, which now lives at AISafety.com/projects – any feedback on that page is very welcome! And yes, to my knowledge the rest of the EA database is unmaintained.
This is a very useful summary, thanks. I've added those that were missing to AISafety.com/events-and-training.
I'm curious about why the Nigeria and South Africa events are called Summits instead of EAGx – would you mind expanding on the reasoning there? What will be the difference between a Summit and an EAGx?
Glad you like it :)
