“I guess I could shout out, I mean, it's hard to play favorites because Matt's is like, we've worked with so many people and we're trying to be very broad, but Yeah, I guess like in terms of nonprofits specifically, because maybe they don't get as much attention, obviously Redwood and Meter and Randcast, Apollo Research, FAR, Goodfire, TruthfullyAI, LawZero, Miri, plenty of others.”

Transcript context

…Yeah, okay, makes sense. Do you want to shout out any other Either just organizations that Matt's fellows have gone to or even started that you think are kind of underappreciated. This could be sort of assignment editing for me for future episodes, but also just things that you think people should be paying more attention to than they are. Yeah, I mean, there's tons. You could see all the organizations listed on our website. There's so many amazing people there. I guess I could shout out, I mean, it's hard to play favorites because Matt's is like, we've worked with so many people and we're trying to be very broad, but Yeah, I guess like in terms of nonprofits specifically, because maybe they don't get as much attention, obviously Redwood and Meter and Randcast, Apollo Research, FAR, Goodfire, TruthfullyAI, LawZero, Miri, plenty of others. I love these organizations. We need more, frankly, nonprofit research organizations. And if you think you could found one, give it a shot. Obviously, you need to have a ton of research experience under your belt and very credible references and so on. Yeah, I don't know. It's really hard to play favorites, Nathan. Yeah, so many great researchers. You're fueled for good options for organizations to shout out. So it's a testament to how many fellows have already gone on to do impressive work. Great job by you guys in driving this and growing it over the last few years. And people should definitely apply if they want to be a fellow. January 18th is the deadline. It's time to get into it if you want to make sure your application stands out. Anything else we should touch on before we break?…
