Alignment Jam hackathons
Join us in this iteration of the Alignment Jam research hackathons to spend 48 hour with fellow engaged researchers and engineers in machine learning on engaging in this exciting and fast-moving field!
Join the Discord where all communication will happen. Check out research project ideas for inspiration and the in-depth starter resources.
Using mechanistic interpretability, we will dive deep into how neural networks think and do. We work towards reverse-engineering the information processing of artificial intelligence!
We provide you with the best starter templates that you can work from so you can focus on creating interesting research instead of browsing Stack Overflow. Check the resources out here. You're very welcome to check out some of the ideas already posted!
Local groups
If you are part of a local machine learning or AI safety group, you are very welcome to set up a local in-person site to work together with people on this hackathon! We will have several across the world (list upcoming) and hope to increase the amount of local spots. Sign up to run a jam site here.
You will work in groups of 2-6 people within our hackathon GatherTown and in the in-person event hubs.
