We are excited to announce that Resolution (fka Sequent) has a $160M grant from Coefficient Giving (cG) to put rigorous alignment research on a (closer to) even footing with the frontier labs. We will use it to accelerate progress towards higher-confidence alignment, or to find evidence and obstacles showing why...
EDIT: We originally launched under the name Sequent. Read why we renamed to Resolution. Alignment is not on track Artificial superintelligence (ASI) may be developed in the next few years. It is unclear whether alignment is on track to be ready on the same timeframe. At a minimum, the empirical...
The Alignment Project is a global fund of over £15 million, dedicated to accelerating progress in AI control and alignment research. It is backed by an international coalition of governments, industry, venture capital and philanthropic funders. This post is part of a sequence on research areas that we are excited...

Summary: This post highlights the need for results in AI safety, such as debate or scalable oversight, to 'relativise', i.e. for the result to hold even when all parties are given access to a black box 'oracle' (the oracle might be a powerful problem solver, a random function, or a...
Linkpost to arXiv: https://arxiv.org/abs/2506.13609. Summary: We present a scalable oversight protocol where honesty is incentivized at equilibrium. Prior debate protocols allowed a dishonest AI to force an honest AI opponent to solve a computationally intractable problem in order to win. In contrast, prover-estimator debate incentivizes honest equilibrium behavior, even when...
