“How Apart Research would use marginal funding to scale AI safety talent development” by JaimeRV
Description
TLDR:
- Apart Research incubates talent and research in AI Safety. We use high-volume weekend hackathons to filter for talent, then support them through the Studio and Fellowship programs.
- Track Record Highlights include placements at leading AIS orgs (e.g. METR, CAIF), alumni starting their own AIS orgs (e.g. Geodesic Resesarch, Asymmetric Security) and impactful research output, including an ICLR 2025 Oral (top 1.8%) on AIS Evals. Our work has also been used by Anthropic, UK AISI and the EU AI Office.
- We are currently operating at capacity. While our remote infrastructure is scalable with decreasing marginal costs, we cannot support the volume of qualified applicants without additional funding.
