1. Lecture: Two Paths to Intelligence by Geoffrey Hinton
Geoffrey Hinton, known as the “Godfather of AI,” has taken a prominent stand on the potential hazards of AI technology, making waves with his departure from Google. Departing from his earlier optimism in 2014, Hinton voices deep concerns about the unchecked progression of AI, suggesting a looming possibility of it surpassing human intelligence within the next two decades.
Emphasizing the advanced language understanding capabilities of large language models like OpenAI’s ChatGPT, Hinton contends that these models could rapidly outstrip individual human brains in knowledge accumulation. Hinton lectures about the contrasts between digital and analog computation for intelligence. Advocating for abandoning the software-hardware divide, he explores low-power analog computation, acknowledging its mortality tied to hardware lifespan.
Digital computation’s knowledge-sharing efficiency and scalability lead Hinton to believe large-scale systems may soon outpace biological intelligence. This lecture, organized by The Centre for the Study of Existential Risk, explores these paths, illuminating the evolving landscape of artificial and biological computation.

2. Guide: How to Structure a Product-Led Organization
In a 13-minute video, Klipfolio CEO Allan Wille explains that beyond user acquisition, the product-led strategy should also be used in every department within your company to leverage the values behind the product.
One of the hardest (and most critical) parts of transitioning from sales-led to product-led is achieving cross-departmental collaboration. In the same way, a product is a primary way to expand and retain users it should also be leveraged in each department to achieve product-led success.

3. Opinion: Digital Life & Superalignment by Ilya Sutskever
Ilya Sutskever, Co-Founder and Chief Scientist at OpenAI joins No Priors podcasts to discuss the origins of OpenAI as a capped profit company, early emergent behaviors of GPT models, the token scarcity issue, the next frontiers of AI research, his argument for working on AI safety now, and the premise of Superalignment. Plus, how do we define digital life?
AI superalignment is a term coined by OpenAI to describe the problem of ensuring that AI systems, much smarter than humans, follow human intent. It is a research area aiming to develop new techniques and methods for aligning superintelligent AI with human values and goals and preventing it from causing harm or taking over.
According to OpenAI, superintelligence is a type of AI with greater than human levels of intelligence, including reasoning capabilities. Such AI could potentially solve many of the world’s most important problems but also pose a serious threat to humanity if it is misaligned or rogue.

4. AI Tools: Adobe Liquid Mode
Viewing PDFs on large screens is a breeze, but for the countless individuals attempting to access official documents or fill out forms on mobile devices, the experience often involves frustrating pinching and zooming.
Recognizing this challenge, Adobe, the creator of the PDF, introduces an innovative solution. Liquid Mode, seamlessly integrated into Acrobat Reader software, employs AI algorithms to dynamically resize PDFs according to the device, eliminating the need for manual adjustments.
This feature also facilitates font resizing and enhances search capabilities. “Initially, we flirted with the idea of an all-new format,” says Phil Ydens, fellow and Vice President of Adobe Document Cloud, “but quickly concluded that PDF was too ubiquitous and important. That’s worth solving the right way.”
