I might be able to collaborate. I have a masters in computer science and did a thesis on neural networks and object recognition, before spending some time at a startup as a data scientist doing mostly natural language related machine learning stuff, and then getting a job as a research scientist at a larger company to do similar applied research work.
I also have two published conference papers under my belt, though they were in pretty obscure conferences admittedly.
As a plus, I’ve also read most of the sequences and am familiar with the Less Wrong culture, and have spent a fair bit of time thinking about the Friendly/Unfriendly AI problem. I even came up with an attempt at a thought experiment to convince an AI to be friendly.
Alas, I am based near Toronto, Ontario, Canada, so distance might be an issue.

Interesting. Can we exchange email addresses?
