Yoshua Bengio Watch posted an update
Yoshua Bengio is urging employees at frontier AI companies to ask whether their work is genuinely leading towards a safer future. The AI researcher says the latest op-ed he has written for Transformer makes that question its focus, and argues there is little time to delay it.
Why it mattersIt is a direct appeal to people building powerful AI, not a report of new technical findings. The hard part is deciding what “safer” means in practice, and whether staff can change course from inside the companies.
Discuss: Should frontier AI employees put safety concerns ahead of their company’s roadmap, even when that means resisting work their employer has chosen to pursue?
