AI safety is a rapidly growing global concern, especially with the rapid commercial development of models with seemingly little concern for safeguarding; however, I believe that with good guardrails, AI holds immense potential for innovation. This proposal identifies a clear gap: a mismatch between potential talent in Germany and a lack of infrastructure to encourage this talent towards this emerging and important field of AI safety. I have faith in Jess, I sincerely hope that SAIGE succeeds because it would be a shame otherwise, as the statement of risk makes clear.
Full disclosure: I know Jess personally and she's always shown a relentless drive and immense conscientiousness.
