Think of the three "smartest" people you know of. Now think of the three most powerful people you know of. Is there any overlap?

If not, start asking yourself why we are supposed to be afraid of an AI which becomes super-intelligent? And also: what are those with power doing now, that maybe we should be afraid of?

@rysiek @woody The first step in controlling or regulating AI is predicting what it will do next.

And to predict what a system will do next you have to first get good at explaining why it did what it did the last time.

The smartest researchers think we're decades away from being able to explain deep neural networks. So LLMs & self driving cars keep doing bad things.

If I knew any other algorithm for this, I would write it. How do you do anti-bias with a machine? This is how. Untimately, we will sink or swim on the strength of our argument. Call it the moral arc of the universe, call it Spaghetti-Os: where we go in the future is determined by forces that are difficult at best to control. Where are we going? What does it all mean? These are questions that actually do have validity, but probably won’t get you a bunch of likes on social media.

How an organization handles #aiethics is an audition for how they will handle the problems of #aisafety and #aialignment further down the road. If you can’t be bothered to let take seriously the concrete concerns of your ethics team before deploying products, why would you take seriously the much more complicated and novel risks of #AI alignment that AI safety experts worry about?
