> Over the past ~4 months, we have been incubating an AI-for-coordination project called Chord. It currently consists of one full-time employee. Its long term aim is to build technologies that enable people to coordinate on important goals like not building AI or agreeing on acceptable and effective regulations.

I'm quite interested in this, could I know more about it or talk to who's involved?

I would also love a levels.fyi, or failing that at least an EA Forum post surveying what researcher salaries have been based on varying amounts of expertise.

wait yeah can we get someone to do that

@Austin I think you should make it more clear at the top of your first comment that you're donating from your own funds rather than, for example, from pot of Manifund funds

I offered $500 (via manifund microregrant budget) at $10k valuation. Would be willing to do higher valuation too

me, February 6:

Question- if we don’t use the money for regranting to boundaries projects that emerge from Conceptual Boundaries Workshop, may we use it for a second boundaries workshop? Davidad wants me to run Mathematical Boundaries Workshop in two months [link to planning doc]

Scott, February 8:

Yes, this is fine.
