Big announcement from Scale AI today:

Scale will be collaborating with the US DoD and the CDAO on a testing & evaluation framework for LLMs in military use.

We are honored to partner on this framework. 

The US needs to utilize this technology thoughtfully within our military, but we also must set the example for the world in what safe deployment looks like.

We want to collaborate closely with the national security community, the AI safety community, and the broader world to ensure we arrive at thoughtful outcomes.

My messages are open if you have perspective and would like to contribute.
