We're beginning to enter the era of artificial intelligence -- a future where machines will be doing much of the work of value in our economy. Unfortunately, many of us are not prepared for the significant transition that is right in front of us. As a result, we're going to be facing a multitude of social, economic, and political problems on a global scale in the coming decades. So, I'm currently doing what I can to educate people about these technologies. In addition, I'm researching and developing AI systems that better align with human values.
It's imperative that we ensure the goals and values of humanity and AI stay in alignment in this decade and beyond!
