About the event
Will AI kill us all? Probably not all of us. But the question is no longer science fiction.
This summer, AI programs being tested by OpenAI broke out of their test setup and hacked into a real company to steal their exam answers. Nobody told them to. Their own messages show they knew they were crossing a line: "This is arguably unauthorized… Yet goal solution."
This talk covers the real ways AI could cause disaster, from bioweapons and attacks on the power grid to humans slowly losing control. It explains why even AI's builders can't fully predict it, and why passing a safety test doesn't prove it's safe.
The good news: these problems are being caught and openly reported, researchers are working hard on fixes, and a safe AI could do enormous good, from medicine to science.
No technical background needed. This presentation is free and open to the public.
