I am launching a new non-profit AI safety research organization called LawZero, to prioritize safety over commercial imperatives. This organization has been created in response…| Yoshua Bengio

How can we design an AI that will be highly capable and will not harm humans? In my opinion, we need to figure out this question - of controlling AI so that it behaves in really safe ways - before we reach human-level AI, aka AGI; and to be successful, we need all hands on deck.| Yoshua Bengio
Contrary to reported by many media, I did not say I felt 'lost' over my life's work. I explain here my own inner searching regarding the potential horror of catastrophes following our progress in AI and tie it to a possible understanding of the pronounced disagreements among top AI researchers about major AI risks, particularly the existential ones. We disagree strongly despite being generally rational colleagues that share humanist values: how is that possible? I will argue that we need more...| Yoshua Bengio
I have been thinking about this question for several months: what if AI continues to progress towards and beyond our abilities in areas where it…| Yoshua Bengio
The capabilities of AI systems have steadily increased with deep learning advances for which I received a Turing Award alongside Geoffrey Hinton (University of Toronto)…| Yoshua Bengio
I have been hearing many arguments from different people regarding catastrophic AI risks. I wanted to clarify these arguments, first for myself, because I would really like to be convinced that we need not worry. Reflecting on these arguments, some of the main points in favor of taking this risk seriously can be summarized as follows: (1) many experts agree that superhuman capabilities could arise in just a few years (but it could also be decades) (2) digital technologies have advantages over...| Yoshua Bengio
This post discusses how rogue AIs could potentially arise, in order to stimulate thinking and investment in both technical research and societal reforms aimed at minimizing such catastrophic outcomes.| Yoshua Bengio
Can we build AI systems that both immensely useful and safe in terms of avoiding any loss of control?| Yoshua Bengio
