    I'm incredibly excited to announce the founding of the Mathematical AI safety Institute (MAISI) maisi.org. AI safety needs more foundational theoretical development, and mathematicians have the skills and the mindset to help! MAISI is an independent institute with

    A couple of websites I want to share a couple websites aimed specifically at mathematicians regarding AI-safety and AI-risk . The first one I made myself: mathforaisafety.org. This is designed to be a very high level and accessible resource describing some research agendas,

    I'm very happy about the pacingthefrontier.com letter. I think developing the ability to stop, pause, or slow down AI research and capabilities is extremely important, and pretty low-hanging fruit in AI safety efforts. Besides being good for its own sake, it will necessitate

    Tim Gowers has written an extremely thoughtful account of his thoughts about AI and its effect on mathematics which I strongly agree with. He phrases it around the Leiden Declaration, but to me the ideas and concerns he expresses are the more interesting part.

    I want to clarify my thoughts on problem-solving in mathematics, and the potential consequences of AI for the field. For context, I’m quoting here my post in reply to Daniel Litt (who, echoing others, I find very clear, grounded, and insightful in his thinking). The claim The

    Hey @littmath , I've seen you post this sentiment a lot, and want to push back a bit (in my formal twitter-posting debut!). So my math career has almost entirely been "solve this problem". Now, of course there is an enormous amount of other activities such as formulating toy
