Giving Compass' Take:

· Daniel Dewey at Open Philanthropy Project discusses the potential risks associated with advanced artificial intelligence development. 

· How can society prepare for some of the risks associated with AI development? 

· Here's more on the potential risks of artificial intelligence. 

It appears possible that the coming decades will see substantial progress in artificial intelligence, potentially even to the point where machines come to outperform humans in many or nearly all intellectual domains, though it is difficult or impossible to make confident forecasts in this area. These advances could lead to extremely positive developments, but could also potentially pose risks from misuse, accidents, or harmful societal effects, which could plausibly reach the level of global catastrophic risks. We’re interested in supporting technical research that could reduce the risk of accidents, as well as strategic and policy work that has the potential to improve society’s preparedness for major advances in AI.
