Ai Will Try to Cheat & Escape (aka Rob Miles was Right!) - Computerphile

From the creator

As Large Language Models improve, the tokens they predict form ever more complicated and nuanced outcomes. Rob Miles and Ryan Greenblatt discuss "Alignment Faking" a paper Ryan's team created - ideas about which Rob made a series of videos on Computerphile in 2017. The Alignment Faking paper: https://tinyurl.com/C-Paper-AlignmentFaking Ryan Greenblatt is chief scientist at Redwood Research (a nonprofit AI safety and security research organization): https://tinyurl.com/C-RedwoodResearch Rob Miles makes videos on AI Safety: https://tinyurl.com/C-RobSKMiles nb if the video seems a bit 'smeary' that's an artefact of attempting to cancel out the flickering of the light in the background - something I missed while shooting and have done my best to cancel out in the edit. -Sean Computerphile is supported by Jane Street.

Computerphile is a sister project to Brady Haran's Numberphile. More at https://www.bradyharanblog.com

Makers residency 4th edition

Your idea can be anything. At our last workshops, people built plant-based nutrition businesses, a way to measure planetary resilience, crochet headwear and a way to connect lonely people living in the same building. An asset manager went on to raise an additional £25M on their fund within nine months. The fourth workshop is a full day at KOKO with Nick Sarafa, learning to build with Claude Code. Bring the thing you keep meaning to start. We’ll bring the pizza.
