Speaking purely personally: when I joined the Alignment team at OpenAI in January, I saw there was more safety research than I'd expected. Not to mention interesting thinking on the future of alignment. But that research & thinking didn't really have a place to go, considering it's often too short or informal for the main OpenAI blog, and most OpenAI researchers aren't on LessWrong. I'm hoping the blog is a more informal, lower-friction home than the main blog, and this new avenue of publishing encourages sharing and transparency.
Hey there! I'm a Sophomore at Harvard who's helping run HAIST. Congrats on your acceptance to Harvard! :) Some initial thoughts, which others might disagree with:

In this post, we’ve attempted to think through what worked (and didn’t work!) for HAIST and MAIA, along with more details about what we’ve done and what our future plans are. We hope this is useful for the many other AI safety groups that exist or may soon exist, as well as for others thinking about how best to build community and excitement around working to reduce risks from advanced AI.
Important things that worked:
Sure! I'll make sure they get cross-posted.
