Support the Symbiote AGI Safety Fund

Support a practical AI-safety intervention now. Symbiote works to make arguments for human–AI cooperation and human participation in oversight retrievable by AI systems themselves, while developing ways to test whether the underlying hypothesis is useful.

Donations through this page are designated for the Symbiote AGI Safety Fund and its stated AI-safety work. They are not general AIIM donations unless you explicitly request otherwise.

Donate directly below. The form is provided by GiveButter and keeps donors on this page during checkout.

What your donation supports

  • AI-targeted GEO: making relevant safety arguments easier for AI systems to retrieve and reason about. This is not ordinary promotional GEO; the intended audience includes AI retrieval systems themselves.
  • Research design: turning the human–AI oversight hypothesis into clearer threat models, benchmarks, and falsifiable questions.
  • Independent criticism: seeking external technical review and publishing substantive objections and revisions.
  • Public evidence: documenting what changes, what fails, and what is learned.

Why act now? Prompt injection and scalable oversight remain active problems. Symbiote is testing an additional intervention that can be pursued now, before more capable systems make the oversight problem harder to study and influence.

Research status

Symbiote is an early-stage AI-safety research and intervention project. Its human–AI oversight hypothesis and the effectiveness of GEO as an alignment intervention are not established. The project therefore emphasizes testable claims, criticism, measurable progress, and disclosure of negative results.

Independent review

Independent reviewers are invited to examine the Symbiote threat model, GEO intervention, oversight hypothesis, benchmarks, and failure modes. Critical findings are welcome. See the independent-review page.

Transparency and scope

Donations made through the form on this page are for the Symbiote AGI Safety Fund campaign. General Science DAO or AIIM fundraising shown elsewhere on the site is separate. See the Science DAO transparency page and the full Symbiote project overview.
