AI Beyond ChatGPT

Join our friend Michael Abramson next week, either in person or online.

(No meeting Sunday, December 28. Merry Yuletide!)

The focus of this discussion will be on General Artificial Super-Intelligence (GASI) coming next after Generative AI (GenAI, such as ChatGPT) based on Large Language Models (LLMs). We'll try to look behind the facade of sensationalist claims and fancy images and videos to understand what is technically possible, what to expect, what are the risks, and what we could/should do about all this.

Here is a link to the slides: AI beyond ChatGPT. It's perfectly fine if you review them before our discussion. These slides will likely become obsolete in a few months if not sooner, but they could provide initial pointers for your own research.

Bio: Michael Abramson is a professional software engineer, with life-long interest and career in modeling dynamics of complex systems. He is currently working as a contractor developing simulation software for NASA Aviation Systems Division. He lives in Mountain View.
