What I’m up to … mostly, a bunch of projects intended to help humanity navigate the development of increasingly advanced AI technology. As of spring 2022, I’m working full-time as CEO and Cofounder of Encultured AI, which is now doing business as HealthcareAgents. I also work for ~1 day/week as a research scientist at UC Berkeley, within the Center for Human-compatible AI (CHAI) in the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences. Prior to that, I worked full-time at CHAI from 2017-2021. I also volunteer for about an hour per week at the Berkeley Existential Risk Initiative, a nonprofit I founded to help research groups streamline operations for projects relevant to humanity’s long-term survival and flourishing. I’m an organizer for and advisor to the Survival and Flourishing Fund (SFF), where I designed a utility-based system for distributing philanthropic donations through the assessments of a team of “grant recommenders”, now also supported by Survival and Flourishing .Com. I also co-founded OpenLetter.net, a small web service for hosting important public statements that is still very much under development. Finally, I volunteer for about 1 hour per month as project director of Survival and Flourishing Projects, a fiscally sponsored project of Social and Environmental Entrepreneurs.
