Inspect Evals, Oct 2025

I think it's great that more people work on Inspect and I've seen a few evals being either competently ported to Inspect or existing evals being significantly improved.

I'm happy to throw in 10k of my regranting money as a sign of my support, but I think the value they provide is clearly big enough that a large funder should support them with hundreds of thousands or millions of dollars in support.

Inspect Evals, Oct 2025

Evals aren't my field, but I think there's a clear theory of change behind making better open source tooling exist, which is often neglected, and the various endorsements and orgs using this suggests inspect is doing good work here. I've funded the remaining 20K up to $50K for this transitional funding, but agree with Marius that it seems like a larger funder should take this longer term
