📖 Description

[Ought](https://ought.org) is an applied machine learning lab. We're building [Elicit](https://elicit.org), the AI research assistant. Our mission is to automate and scale open-ended reasoning. To get there, we train language models by [supervising reasoning processes, not outcomes](https://www.lesswrong.com/posts/pYcFPMBtQveAjcSfH/supervise-process-not-outcomes). This is better for reasoning capabilities in the short run and better for alignment in the long run.
