Show Notes

What is the AI Alignment Problem and why are companies such as OpenAI so concerned about solving it? In this podcast, I interview Mako Yass who is the winner of the Future of Life Institute's World Building Competition with his entry "To Light."  In his entry, Mako imagines a positive future where humanity has solved the Alignment Problem and found peace by embracing Artificial General Intelligence.
