Why this is on the board

Discussies over AI-beleid stranden vaak op de vraag wat modellen nu écht kunnen. Epoch AI bouwt de openbare tests die dat meten, en als engineer aan die infrastructuur werk je aan cijfers waar onderzoekers, journalisten en toezichthouders naar verwijzen — je eigen werk vermenigvuldigt zich via ieder besluit dat erop steunt.
