Hi, I’m relatively new to the forum. I learned about it a few months ago, and I’m hoping to get fully involved now.
I’m a Trust & Safety practitioner with a recent pivot and focus on AI safety. I’ve been familiarizing myself with basic concepts in AI safety such as sycophancy, anti-bias, steering, supervised fine-tuning, and more.
My belief in AI is that it has great potential for both assistance and harm. I don’t believe we’ll be seeing anything like the Terminator, but I do believe there is a 20% chance we will see mass job displacement, along with environmental concerns such as noise pollution. I believe it’s our duty to maximize helpfulness while minimizing risk.
I’m particularly interested in AI safety in regards to child safety. Many current LLMs are 18+, although children and teenagers still use it regularly, especially persona-based applications. How do models react when they are confronted by someone younger than 18? How are children affected by the increasing push of AI in the world, especially as it grows more isolated? How should the law be applied to these LLMs in regards to children? These are some questions I wish to explore.
Any discussion or reading in that space would be welcome. Looking forward to contributing.
