I am Robert Kralisch, one of the organizers for the AI Safety Camp, working as a research coordinator by evaluating and supporting research projects that fit under the umbrella of “technical AI Safety research” and “conceptually sound approaches to AI Alignment”.
I’m also an independent conceptual/theoretical Alignment Researcher. I have a background in Cognitive Science and I am interested in collaborating on an end-to-end strategy for AGI alignment.
The three main branches that I aim to contribute to are conceptual clarity (what should we mean by agency, intelligence, embodiment, etc), the exploration of more inherently interpretable cognitive architectures, and Simulator theory.
One of my concrete goals is to figure out how to design a cognitively powerful agent such that it does not become a Superoptimiser in the limit.
