This post may be interest people who
are interested in getting into AI alignment / the MATS program are interested in the soft skills that I’ve found valuable in developing when working on a research project Background In 2023 I was working as a machine learning engineer. I wanted to work on AI alignment problems. I quit my job and participated in the MATS Summer 2023 program. The MATS program puts you together with others to work on AI alignment problems under a specific mentor.
