Art Keller speaks with Holly Elmore, the Executive Director of the AI safety non-profit Pause AI. We cover a lot of ground, from the disturbing AI scheming in the recent Apollo Research report-to the much more dubious and reprehensible scheming of AI *luminaries* such as Sam Altman and Yann LeCun. We also cover the politics of AI, how AI companies publicly beg for regulation while privately treating any attempt at even mild regulation as an affront, and the strange beliefs that infest Silicon Valley like nowhere else on earth!
If you’d like to hear more about PauseAI’s mission you can visit the Pause AI Discord. You can follow their work on Twitter @pauseaius. We also touch on how, while the public overwhelmingly supports work on AI safety, AI safety orgs are battling to get the word out against the Silicon Valley venture capitalists with bankrolls in the $100s of billions.
If you’d like to help level that playing field, you can donate to PauseAI.
