Managing AI Risks in an Era of Rapid Progress

This is a link post for a paper whose authors included IAPS researcher Ashwin Acharya, among many others. Below is the paper’s abstract.

In this short consensus paper, we outline risks from upcoming, advanced AI systems. We examine large-scale social harms and malicious uses, as well as an irreversible loss of human control over autonomous AI systems. In light of rapid and continuing AI progress, we propose urgent priorities for AI R&D and governance.
