Cambridge Boston Alignment Initiative — Machine Learning Bootcamps

[Global Catastrophic Risks Capacity Building] Open Philanthropy recommended two grants totaling $284,629 to the Cambridge Boston Alignment Initiative to support bootcamp programs in Berkeley and Cambridge, MA. These bootcamps will teach machine learning skills to people who want to work on AI alignment. This funding will also support a student research program on AI at Harvard and MIT. This falls within our focus area of growing and empowering the community of people focused on global catastrophic risk reduction.
