Hey everyone, I’m new to posting here but have been reading the intro posts for a few weeks. I’m a software engineer working on AI evaluation products (LLM as a judge, RAG evaluation, etc.) which I find interesting from a technical perspective but ultimately I would like to shift more of my time into responsible AI and AI safety.
I have always had an interest in this topic but have only explored through popular books on the subject so far, Weapons of Math Destruction, Technically Wrong, and the Alignment Problem. I also did a minor in AI ethics in college where I wrote a paper on the ethics of a university using a Twitter scraper for public tweets and sentiment analysis to determine student well-being around campus during the pandemic.
Many of the origin stories around this website really resonated with me. After finishing my degree and joining the corporate world I found a lack of opportunities for writing and discussion about the ethics of artificial intelligence even though I am working in a problem space adjacent to it. My aim here is to begin contributing to discussions and to improve my skills of critical thinking in this area which I hope will pair nicely with my technical background. I have really enjoyed reading through the posts here and I hope to get better at both writing and forming logical arguments around subjects I am passionate about.
Anyways, great to meet you all, thank you for creating this community.
