Schwartz Reisman Institute is a multi-agent safety discussion group, one of the very best ai safety sources I’ve seen anywhere. a few interesting videos include, for example, this one, which I think is on the cutting edge in terms of where AI safety will eventually end up (potentially multi-agent safety that comes into existence after humanity dies, if we don’t get there fast enough to prevent darwinist AIs that don’t love us from literally eating us, as yudkowsky describes with the words “does not love you, does not hate you, made out of atoms that can be used for something else”):
SRI’s weekly Seminar Series welcomes Richard Watson, associate professor in the Agents, Interaction and Complexity group at the University of Southampton’s School of Electronics and Computer Science. Watson has over 80 publications on topics spanning artificial life, robotics, evolutionary computation, population genetics, neural networks, evolutionary theory and computational biology, and is the author of Compositional Evolution: The Impact of Sex, Symbiosis, and Modularity on the Gradualist Framework of Evolution (MIT Press, 2006).
Watson’s research seeks to deepen our understanding of biological evolution by expanding the formal equivalence of learning and evolution—in particular, using connectionist models of cognition and learning. In this talk, he will introduce the concept of “natural induction” as a critique of the ideas of Universal Darwinism that focuses on the evolutionary potential of how organisms develop relationships by working together
