Support for SAELens and other Decode Research Projects, Aug 2025
Read more ▾Show less ▴Fully funded (I asked David to apply). I think Decode is great and serve a valuable role providing infrastructure for the interpretability community and I want to see them succeed. The co-founder Johnny is an absolutely cracked engineer and has made some amazing interfaces and surrounding infra, but I was sad to hear that Curt, the main one with a research background, has decided to move on, as I think it's very helpful to have someone with a research background around. I'm super excited that David is now interested in getting involved and happy to support this, I really liked some of David's past research like the feature absorption paper, and I think he'll be able to provide a lot of valuable research expertise to complement Johnny's skillset.
