@geoffreyirving Wow! Congratulations

Geoffrey Irving@geoffreyirvingTECH

We're excited to announce that Resolution has a $160M grant from Coefficient Giving: $108M unconditional, with a further $52M conditional on hiring and compute needs. We'll use it to grow teams across our research portfolio and invest heavily in research automation. 🧵 https://x.com/geoffreyirving/status/2074134458630823939/photo/1

We founded @resolution_org (formerly Sequent) because we think humanity is not on track to align superintelligence (ASI) in time. To clear a higher bar, we're betting that theory, combined with automation, buys AI safety a better chance to "catch up." https://x.com/geoffreyirving/status/2064733320827568231

Geoffrey Irving@geoffreyirvingTECH

AI developers are building the dangerous object (ASI) very fast, with tight feedback loops and enormous resources. We want to make the race between rigor and danger a fair(er) fight, using the same ingredients: a critical mass of world-class researchers and a bunch of compute.

Geoffrey Irving@geoffreyirvingTECH

We also expect we’ll need to grow even further (in compute and/or humans). Aligning ASI is the project of our time. This will require the best our civilization can muster. If you want to find out how you can help, please reach out! https://resolution.org/donate

With this funding, we’ll be growing a lot over the next year. We’re now hiring across research, engineering, security, and operations. Please apply by July 19th! https://resolution.org/careers

So much could be done with a fraction of this amount spent on advocacy and activism. https://twitter.com/geoffreyirving/status/2074134458630823939
