CAIA x DTI Dev Talk
Join Cornell AI Alignment (CAIA) and Cornell Design & Tech Initiative (DTI) for an introduction to AI safety, alignment, and careers in the field!
AI has the potential to be one of the most transformative technologies in human history, bringing enormous benefits to society while also posing significant risks. As AI systems become increasingly capable and autonomous, how can we ensure they remain safe, reliable, and aligned with human intentions and values?
In this Dev Talk, members of CAIA will introduce the rapidly growing field of AI safety and alignment, exploring:
Why AI safety matters: The opportunities and risks posed by increasingly powerful AI systems
Technical AI safety research: Key challenges in alignment, interpretability, evaluations, and AI control
Careers in AI safety: What working in AI safety looks like, career pathways, and opportunities for students to get involved
AI safety at Cornell: Research, reading groups, guest talks, courses, and other opportunities through CAIA
This event is only open to CAIA and DTI members.
