Oh nice. You’re going a step further and me and listing out non disclosure agreements which I think is admirable. For me, I signed one with US AISI (obsolete and I never got any info that it would have covered), one standard one working with UK AISI, and one with a law firm I am consulting for. I believe this is it though.

@davidmanheim @wfithian Yeah, I know what you mean. I thought about this. In my case, I just feel sufficiently confident because I am pretty much unable to imagine a scenario where I would want to. There’s also some utility in the commitment and some people like us have to exist.

@StephenLCasper @wfithian I certainly can't commit to never having worked for big companies, since I was working before graduate school. I'm also not sure it's wise to commit to never working for the AI industry, e.g. in a consulting role. But I did add an NDA Transparency section to my web site:
