Reading posts like "This might be the last AI Safety Camp" makes me feel very sad. The degree to which AI Safety is currently funding-constrained is clearly inadequate on the national and civilisational levels.
Maybe let's try to make a smart counter-move and accelerate the development of for-profit AI Safety projects (see also the comments to that post, and this post)? With the obvious idea to pull some VC money, which is a different pool than AI safety philanthropic funds.
Potential collaborations:
- https://vc.ae.studio/
- https://www.lionheart.vc/
- https://www.mythos.vc/
- https://www.joinef.com/ (or maybe they are working on something like this already? At least Matt Clifford was the UK PM's sherpa for AI Safety Summit, and now working on AI full time)
- More?
P.S. I'm not a professional organiser or community builder, nor a startup accelerator program manager, so just floating the idea, but I'd be very eager to participate if something like this is organised.
We're doing this at AI-Plans.com!! With the Critique-a-Thon and the Law-a-Thon!
