Emergency Episode: John Sherman FIRED from Center for AI Safety
Episode description
My friend John Sherman from the For Humanity podcast got hired by the Center for AI Safety (CAIS) two weeks ago.
Today I suddenly learned he’s been fired.
I’m frustrated by this decision, and frustrated with the whole AI x-risk community’s weak messaging.
