AI Safety Is A Global Public Good
The advent of ever more powerful artificial intelligences today in the context of geopolitical rivalry between the U.S.-led West and China has prompted the organization of a similarly urgent exchange across divides called the International Dialogues on AI Safety, organized by the Safe AI Forum.
The effort is comprised of top foundational AI scientists from both China and the West, including the Turing Award winners Yoshua Bengio, Andrew Yao and Geoffrey Hinton, among others, including Ya-Qin Zhang, the former president of Baidu. Its first meeting was held at Bletchley Park, home of the World War II codebreakers, outside of London in 2023. In 2024, the group met in Beijing at the Aman Summer Palace. The dialogue has just concluded its third conclave — and reached the most substantive consensus so far — at the Berggruen Institute’s Casa dei Tre Oci in Venice.
This is overblown.
It seems, the further we go, the less of a threat AI is. The fearmongering about it being the end is overblown. There is no reason to fear AI, at least large language models.
We are creating artificial knowledge, not artificial intelligence.
Yea. Probably some people trying to stop the competitiontion so they can catch up
They want regulatory capture. Sam Altman is big on this. If he can get open source removed, it is to the advantage of OpenAI.
