Great to partner with AI Security Institute on their inaugural Alignment Conference! Collaboration between researchers, funders, and policymakers is essential for advancing AI alignment.
Last week, we hosted our inaugural Alignment Conference, in partnership with FAR.AI . The event bought together an interdisciplinary delegation of leading researchers, funders, and policymakers to discuss urgent open problems in AI alignment. Ensuring that future AI systems act as we intend will require a rapid, cross-disciplinary expansion of the AI alignment field. Progress hinges on contributions from fields spanning cognitive sciences to learning theory. Our conference deepened this technical collaboration through five research tracks: 1️⃣ Theoretical Computer Science 2️⃣ Learning Theory & Learning Dynamics 3️⃣ Economic Theory 4️⃣ Cognitive Science & Scalable Oversight + Evaluations 5️⃣ Explainability Learn more about AISI’s work to accelerate research in AI alignment: https://orlo.uk/KNNQK Read our research agenda: https://orlo.uk/sdJFg
Exciting to see so many disciplines coming together.
