.. an interview with Jesse Hoogland
TLDR: Jesse Hoogland is a theoretical physicist from the Netherlands who is the founder and executive director of Timaeus. Timaeus is a non-profit that was formed in 2023 with the mission to empower humanity by making fundamental progress on AI safety. Their vision is to use singular learning theory (SLT) to develop connections between a model’s training data and its resulting behavior, with applications for AI interpretability and alignment. Timaeus has validated initial predictions from SLT on toy models. Now, they are building tools that allow to interpret the training processes of…
