Books & Articles about AI
The Alignment Problem
This week’s book pick is The Alignment Problem: Machine Learning and Human Values by Brian Christian. It’s a fascinating look into one of the big questions in AI: how do we make sure these systems stay aligned with human values? Christian breaks down complicated AI issues with real-world examples and stories from top experts, making it clear and engaging for any reader. If you’re interested in understanding both the challenges and the potential of AI to work in harmony with us, this book is a must-read.
The Real AI Nightmare: What If It Serves Humans Too Well?
While we may worry about The Alignment Problem, we also need to consider the potential dangers of AI serving human interests too well. This article explores the need for AI to consider the well-being of all sentient beings, not just humans.
Human-aligned” AI is essentially just as good, evil, constructive or dangerous as the people designing it.
A better goal than aligning AI with humanity’s immediate interests would be what I would call sentient alignment — AI acting in accordance with the interest of all sentient beings, including humans, all other animals and, should it exist, sentient AI.
AI Tools to Try
Google's Learn About
Google’s Learn About tool is an interactive way to explore and learn more about AI alignment. It’s like having a conversation partner that adjusts to your questions and interests. You can ask it about different topics, upload materials, and use interactive guides to dive into complex ideas.
Using tools like this, we can get a better grasp on the ethical side of AI—not just thinking about how it affects humans, but also considering the bigger picture and its impact on all living beings and even artificial ones.
