Why this is on the board
Anyone who wants to know whether an AI system has become safer or riskier after an update needs a reliable way to measure it. Here you build test set-ups that other researchers and developers use to record and compare that behaviour. So you don't answer the safety question yourself; you build the measuring instrument that determines how well others can.
