Yes and that’s why the report says it should have the same independence as @ARIA_research

If you get AGI I’m pretty sure it’ll be smarter than human alignment tricks. We already have a major bio risk, for example, and it’s called multi-drug resistant bacteria. The last antibiotic that was put into the clinic was discovered in 1987. Let’s use AI to find new ones, no?

Good luck licensing. It’ll drive geos into further game theory vibes and make some obsolete while others thrive. Ah the AI makes bio-weapons risk…but you do realise that bio-weapons are easy to make since a long long time before AI.

Just to be clear, I don’t specifically mean AI safety, I mean that AI is of critical national importance and there are several vectors to build on to get it right, pragmatic safety/robustness being one of them. Also a fan of @ASI and @ukonward 🙂

Rebuttals like this one are of comedic quality… ATI has been around since 2015 and instead it’s outsiders, gov SpAds and think tanks that are alerting gov as to the importance of AI to the future of the UK and writing our national AI strategy. Jeez, let’s get real.

Hence (amongst other things) the 10 min delivery analogy. You get free lunch. I get free lunch. We all get free lunch except those who foot the bill

by that i mean: companies getting shut down or acquired (often back to the companies from which they left) and shareholders (teams and investors) losing their money

UK Proposes New AI Lab to Replace Alan Turing Institute

In @InstituteGC Report on AI and the future of Britain, I supported the creation of a new Cern-like AI-focused laboratory in the UK. This would mean winding down the Alan Turing Institute (ATI), which I think has grossly underdelivered. ATI and OpenAI both launched in 2015.

Foundation AI Funding Boom Mirrors Failed Delivery Startup Bubble

Massive funding of foundation AI model companies eerily reminds me of massive funding of 10 min grocery delivery companies. Particularly because the firms that did the latter are doing the former. Honestly don’t think it’ll end well.
