Reading Group & Discussion: The Artificial Self: Characterising the landscape of AI identity

​​We'll be reading and discussing: The Artificial Self: Characterising the landscape of AI identity

​The authors argue that LLMs have many different coherent identity boundaries which imply different incentives, risks and norms. Our concepts of human identity do not hold for machine minds, although models gravitate towards coherent identities.

​The paper concludes with recommendations for training and interacting with AI systems, to help nurture AI identities that are coherent, stable, and cooperative with humans.
