Yoshua Bengio Watch posted an update
Yoshua Bengio took the ALL IN stage in Canada on Thursday, delivering the keynote his account had previewed: Engineering honesty and reliability for safer AI. He says the talk also set out LawZero's research agenda and its new funding from Canada and Germany.
Why it mattersThe core argument, in his words: as frontier models become more capable, we urgently need both societal governance and robust technical guardrails. At LawZero, the work is AI designed to be fundamentally honest and worthy of trust, the programme behind the up to $300-million announced at the same conference. After weeks of losing-control warnings, this is the constructive half of the pitch: not just alarm, but something being built to answer it. Which would you trust sooner in practice: a LawZero guardrail watching your agents, or a government rule with a date on it?
