New hub for Interdisciplinary Research on the Global Security and politics of Artificial Intelligence. We are working to understand the effects of misuse and unintended consequences, how ais change a global Power Dynamics and what governance models are meaningful to support and the safe and trustworthy ai. Our work is oriented with a view over the horizon and our goal is to help decisionmakers identify the steps they can take today that will have an outsized impact on the future trajectory of ai around the world. This work help support the Broader Mission of the center for long term cybersecurity which is to help individuals and organizations address to mars Information Security challenges to apple five the upside of the digital revolution. The center for human compatible ai is a research lab based at uc berkeley aiming to reorient the field of ai towards approval of beneficial systems. Through ai safety research. The faculties researchers and phd students are doing pioneering Technica
Threats Artificial Intelligence may pose to humans and what can be done to protect us. [inaudible conversations] all right. Hi, everyone. Thank you so much for coming to the beautiful faculty class here at ucberkeley for this event today. Were really excited for the discussion. The event is being filmed by cspan to be broadcast at a later date, so well make that available to you as soon as we have it. This event is cohosted by the a. I. Security initiative which is housed at the center for longterm cybersecurity and by the sector for human compatible a. I. , a new hub for Interdisciplinary Research on Global Security and politics of Artificial Intelligence. We are work to understand the effects of misuse and unintended consequences, how a. I. Is changing global power dynamicses and what governance molds are meaningful to models are meaningful. Our work is oriented with a view over the horizon, and our goal is to help Decision Makers identify the steps they can take today that will have
But these machines and in some sense, do. They have an explicit internal model welcome to hardtalk, of what their objective im stephen sackur. What is the most serious existential is and they can figure out how to achieve it. Threat facing humanity . So there might have the goal of winning a game of chess well, many of us might point and they can figure out how to do that and beat humans at it. To nuclear war or climate change.

So these days, following actually but some of the greatest minds a recommendation by alan turing in the tech sector are looking in 1950, we built many of the ai in a very different direction. Artificial intelligence, system, not by programming them warned the physicist explicitly, but by training them. Stephen hawking, could spell the end of the human race.

Ill ill be back at one oclock. Now on bbc news, its hardtalk. Welcome to hardtalk, im stephen sackur, what is the most serious existential threat facing humanity .

Artificial intelligence won the Physicist Stephen Hawking could spell the end of the human race. I guess to stuart russell, a globally renowned my Computer Scientist and advisor to the uk government and you and for top right now ai is being developed asa top right now ai is being developed as a tool to enhance human capability. Is it fanciful to imagine the machines taking over . Stuart russell, think welcome to hardtalk. You have spent a career at the forefront of ideas on Artificial Intelligence. Can you give me a working definition . Very stra ig htforwa rdly working definition . Very straightforwardly it means making machines intelligent. And what that means is tra
