I’ve been trying to think more about what might help mathematicians make more progress on problems related to AI safety. AI labs (among others) publish and commission lists of open problems as benchmarks, which gather significant attention and work. What if they produced similar lists of safety-related mathematical challenges? Either in the form of a benchmark, or just a list of problems that they find important?
Hi alkjash,
I’ve been trying to think more about what might help mathematicians make more progress on problems related to AI safety.

It’s an interesting thought, I think that’s roughly what Jacob Tsimerman is trying to do with https://www.mathforaisafety.org/.
