Source Check Verdicts
partial85% confidence
Last checked: 4/9/2026
The source confirms Paul Christiano's association with AI Impacts and that he was a contributor. However, the source explicitly states that Katja Grace 'co-founded AI Impacts,' not Paul Christiano. The source lists Paul Christiano only as a 'Past contributor,' not as a co-founder. The start date of 2014 is not mentioned in the source text. The record claims Paul Christiano was a co-founder, but the source indicates Katja Grace was the co-founder, making the role claim contradictory. However, since the source does confirm his involvement with the organization (as a past contributor), this is partial rather than fully contradicted.
