I’m doing safety work at a capabilities team, basically. I’m trying not to advance capabilities myself. I’m trying to make progress on a faithful CoT agenda. Dan Selsam, who runs the team, thought it would be good to have a hybrid team instead of the usual thing where the safety people and capabilities people are on separate teams and the capabilities people feel licensed to not worry about the safety stuff at all and the safety people are relatively out of the loop.
Um. What?
I guess I’m out of the loop. I thought you, Daniel, were doing governance stuff.
What’s your rationale for working on capabilities if you think timelines are this compressed?
