Epoch AI

Epoch AI is a leading research institute that develops public knowledge on AI's trajectory through rigorous research, novel benchmarking, and comprehensive data tracking. We seek general support to expand our work informing policymakers, industry leaders, and society on AI development and its implications. Our unique position combining technical depth with accessible communication has made us a trusted source for stakeholders ranging from government officials to tech leaders.

Broadly, our mission is to conduct and disseminate rigorous research on the trajectory and impact of artificial intelligence, to enable better policy and decision-making. With additional funding, we aim to expand three key initiatives:

1. Data Curation: Building on our successful AI model and hardware tracking to cover AI clusters and companies, launching weekly data insights for timely analysis.
2. Capability Measurement: Growing our AI Benchmarking Hub through independent model evaluations and novel benchmarks like FrontierMath.
3. Economic Modeling: Developing a framework combining AI scaling laws with growth theory to analyze automation impacts and compute scaling.

We'll achieve these through strategic hiring of technical talent, maintaining our commitment to rigorous analysis, and expanding our successful track record of creating accessible, high-impact content.
