METR has enough to do that we mostly only ask labs to give us access to models or datasets we can analyze. We don’t have any mechinterp researchers, so any recommendation would probably be for the labs to do mechinterp themselves according to some methodology and share their methodology.
I would also reserve “demand” for something labs are required to do by law or METR thinks is the absolute highest priority. While white box methods are important, there are probably more urgent priorities.
