BERI's semi-annual report, August 2017

It's been slightly more than six months since BERI was incorporated. In our first half year, we have:

• Assisted the Center for Human-Compatible AI (CHAI) with several projects, including the coordination of CHAI's first conference.

• Hired two employees and eight contractors.

• Raised over $400,000 for future projects, including activities that support CHAI.

You can read about our progress and plans for the future in our first semi-annual report.

We are extremely grateful to all of the donors and volunteers who have supported BERI during its early stages, and we look forward to another six months of helping AI alignment research move forward swiftly!
