ai development

Erik Torenburg and Haseeb Quereshi join us for today's debate.

Should we accelerate or decelerate our tech progress? How about when it comes to something as powerful as AI? This is not just a debate in tech circles - this is a political debate that poised to define the next decade. 

We’ve had leaders from both sides of the debate on the podcast - episodes with Elizer Yudkowski and Beff Jezos. You’ve heard what they think.

Today’s episode is a discussion and at times a debate on these opinions to help you think through where you stand on this issue - Haseeb Quereshi tends toward the EA side which favors more caution and regulatory intervention around AI while Erik Torenburg tends toward the e/acc side of the issue which favors faster progress and lighter touch.

In this episode of "A Beginner's Guide to AI," we embark on a thought-provoking journey into the complex world where geopolitics and artificial intelligence converge. Today, we delve deep into the economic effects of a potential Taiwan-China conflict on AI, examining how a standoff could disrupt the global semiconductor supply chain, a critical artery for the AI industry. This episode sheds light on the intricate dependencies of AI development on geopolitical stability and explores the far-reaching consequences of such conflicts on industries and innovation worldwide.

As we navigate through the repercussions of a semiconductor shortage, from stalled AI progress across various sectors to the potential acceleration of AI in military applications, we underscore the fragility of our global tech ecosystem. Yet, amidst these challenges, we also uncover opportunities for resilience and adaptation, urging a reevaluation of our technological dependencies and strategies for a more secure future.

This week’s episode is a conversation with Demis Hassabis, the head of Google’s artificial intelligence division. We talk about Google’s latest A.I. models, Gemini and Gemma; the existential risks of artificial intelligence; his timelines for artificial general intelligence; and what he thinks the world will look like post-A.G.I.

Additional listening and reading: 

• A.I. Could Solve Some of Humanity’s Hardest Problems. It Already Has.
• This interview was recorded on Wednesday. Since then, Google has temporarily suspended Gemini’s ability to generate images of humans, following criticism of images the chatbot generated of people of color in Nazi-era uniforms.
• Google Is Giving Away Some of the A.I. That Powers Chatbots

In this episode of "A Beginner's Guide to AI," Professor GePhardT dives into the intriguing world of AI responses to politeness and incentives. He explores why phrases like "please" and "thank you," or the mention of a tip, seem to make AI, like GPT4, respond more thoughtfully. The discussion includes how these A-Ice process language and context, a real-world case study of a programmer's experiment with AI responses, and a deeper look into the psychological and programming aspects influencing AI behavior. Engage in an interactive challenge to apply your understanding of AI and join us in a call to action for those passionate about AI.

Today on "A Beginner's Guide to AI," we take a high-speed pursuit through time, exploring how K.I.T.T., the iconic AI from the 80s hit show Knight Rider, continues to fuel discussions on AI's potential and ethics. We've navigated through the conceptual framework of AI, recounting K.I.T.T.'s advanced autonomous capabilities and personality that mirror today's technological aspirations. We analyzed how this early portrayal of AI ethics in popular culture intersects with current AI developments, especially in regard to companion robots and self-driving cars. Moreover, we considered the convergence of AI with ethical responsibility in programming, pondering over how we might encode machines with moral decision-making. K.I.T.T. is not just a pop culture relic but a beacon that illuminates the intricate relationship between humanity and intelligent machines.
