MIRI Updates
MIRI updates Scott Garrabrant and Rohin Shah debate one of the central questions in AI alignment strategy: whether we should try to avoid human-modeling capabilities in the first AGI systems. Scott gives a proof of the fundamental theorem of finite...
MIRI updates MIRI researcher Evan Hubinger discusses learned optimization, interpretability, and homogeneity in takeoff speeds on the Inside View podcast. Scott Garrabrant releases part three of "Finite Factored Sets", on conditional orthogonality. UC Berkeley's Daniel Filan provides examples of conditional orthogonality...
Our big news this month is Scott Garrabrant's finite factored sets, one of MIRI's largest results to date. For most people, the best introductory resource on FFS is likely Scott’s Topos talk/transcript. Scott is also in the process of posting...
[mathjax] This is the edited transcript of a talk introducing finite factored sets. For most readers, it will probably be the best starting point for learning about factored sets. Video: (Lightly edited) slides: https://intelligence.org/files/Factored-Set-Slides.pdf (Part 1, Title Slides)...
MIRI senior researcher Scott Garrabrant has a major new result, “Finite Factored Sets,” that he’ll be unveiling in an online talk this Sunday at noon Pacific time. (Zoom link.) For context on the result, see Scott’s new post “Saving Time.”...
Note: This is a preamble to Finite Factored Sets, a sequence I’ll be posting over the next few weeks. This Sunday at noon Pacific time, I’ll be giving a Zoom talk (link) introducing Finite Factored Sets, a framework which I...
