Why this is on the board

Anyone who wants to assess the risks advanced AI brings must first measure what those systems can really do and how reliable their forecasts are. In this role you build the tests and datasets for those measurements. Other researchers often adopt a good test, so your work can help determine what an entire field pays attention to.
