Dario Amodei
is an American AI researcher and entrepreneur best known as the co-founder and CEO of Anthropic. He previously worked at OpenAI, where he played a significant role in the development of large language models. I am following him closely as he is particularly known for his focus on AI safety and alignment, attempting to ensure advanced AI systems behave in ways that are beneficial and predictable for humans. At Anthropic, he has championed ideas such as “constitutional AI,” which aims to embed ethical principles directly into AI training; the latter is well worth a read. His work places long-term responsibility and risk reduction at the centre of AI progress.
This is his latest essay which-might I suggest-is essential reading.
Go read. Go study.
And here is my contribution to the topic.
