Research funding for a year, to enable a transition to AI safety work.

Vojtěch previously did research in mathematics and game theory. He just finished an internship at FHI and is now interested in exploring a full-time career in AI Safety. To do so, he plans to spend a year doing research visits at various organizations and exploring some research directions he is excited about.

According to an FHI researcher we spoke to, Vojtěch seems to have performed well during his time at FHI, so it seemed good to allow him to try transitioning into a full-time AI safety role.
