If you want to research interventions to gradual disempowerment or the intelligence curse, @LRudL_ and I are mentoring a @MATSprogram stream this autumn. Many people have asked me β€œwhat’s the plan to make this go well?” Right now, there’s not one. You should help fix that. 🧡

Applying to Luke's MATS stream is a great idea.

Fun fact: we worked together super briefly right before I joined OAI! It was a quick project but I learned a lot about Luke and Rudolf's approach to things and think they have a lot to offer potential mentees. Good luck!
