    Can policy keep up with AI advances? | OpenAI's Amanda Askell, Miles Brundage, & Jack Clark (2019)

    Amanda Askell, Miles Brundage, Jack Clark, Niel Bowerman, Michelle Hutchinson, Rob Wiblin

    OpenAI researchers and policy experts convened to discuss a strategic framework that balances scientific transparency with safety, exemplified by the partial release of the GPT-2 model to prevent malicious applications like autonomous warfare and large-scale disinformation. The panel emphasized that short-term governance challenges mirror long-term alignment issues, proposing collaborative incentives and institutional mechanisms to avoid harmful development races while engaging with military sectors to enforce safety constraints. To accelerate these goals, speakers outlined critical career pathways for policy professionals, including newsletter creation and technical translation, while expressing optimism that robust coordination can harness AI to solve global challenges like poverty and disease.

    #1 - Miles Brundage on the world's desperate need for AI strategists and policy experts

    Miles Brundage, Robert Wiblin, Rob

    Myles Brundage, a research fellow at the Future of Humanity Institute, analyzes the escalating security risks posed by bad actors and the structural incentives driving dangerous AI arms races. He advocates for incentive-compatible international coordination and in-house government expertise to prevent states and corporations from skimping on safety for competitive advantage. By shifting the field from abstract principles to concrete policy frameworks, Brundage emphasizes the urgent need for interdisciplinary collaboration to manage the diffusion of powerful AI capabilities.

    A.I. Policy and Public Perception - Miles Brundage and Tim Hwang

    Miles Brundage, Tim Hwang, Craig Cannon

    Researchers from the Future of Humanity Institute and Oxford University analyze the dual-use nature of artificial intelligence, categorizing risks ranging from near-term digital threats like deepfakes and adversarial attacks to long-term existential concerns. They advocate for a shift in policy from reactive measures to proactive frameworks that incorporate responsible disclosure norms, interpretability standards, and structured international cooperation to address geopolitical competition and regulatory divergence. By extrapolating technical trends rather than waiting for incidents, these experts aim to establish rigorous governance models that balance rapid deployment in fields like healthcare with the critical need for safety and value alignment.
