📖 Description

In the past six weeks, the Stanford Existential Risks Initiative (SERI) has been running a trial for the "ML Alignment Theory Scholars" (MATS) program. Our goal is to increase the number of people working on alignment theory, and to do this, we're running a scholars program that provides mentorship, funding, and community to promising new alignment theorists. This program is run in partnership with Evan Hubinger, who has been providing all of the mentorship to each of the scholars for their trial.
