AI, AI Ethics, Daniel Schmachtenberger -

The development of artificial intelligence poses potential risks to society and requires a shift in goal definitions, consideration of the motivational landscape, and wisdom to prevent self-extinction and promote sustainability On this episode, Daniel Schmachtenberger returns to discuss a surprisingly overlooked risk to our global systems and planetary stability: artificial intelligence. Through a systems perspective, Daniel and Nate piece together the biophysical history that has led humans to this point, heading towards (and beyond) numerous planetary boundaries and facing geopolitical risks all with existential consequences.  Questions to inspire discussion What are the potential risks of artificial intelligence? —The potential risks...

AI, Tree of Thoughts -

Tree-of-Thought improves prompting of large language models (LLMs) by generalizing the concept of Chain-of-Thought prompting and introduces a tree search across language model thoughts, including state evaluation and backtracking. Experiments on toy tasks show large improvements over both classic and Chain-of-Thought prompting.
