4 | Teaching AI How to Be Moral (Jared Moore of Stanford) 31 JAN 2026
Season 1 · Episode 4
dimanche 1 février 2026 • Duration 01:02:54
Can we make moral AI agents? Can these agents get good enough to provide therapy and other personal services to humans, and even if they can, is that a good idea? Are language models sentient and deserving of moral concern - and how would we know? How do we incorporate a pluralistic set of views into AI systems?
Join Jared Moore, a computer scientist, AI alignment researcher, and educator probing how large language models understand (and sometimes misunderstand) human minds and values. Now at Stanford University, he investigates social reasoning, theory-of-mind, and the pitfalls of machine deception while co-creating courses like "How to Make a Moral Agent." Jared blends rigorous research with creative outreach—publishing on pluralistic alignment, writing a satirical novel about conscious AI, and building installations that turn code into poetry—to push the question: how can we make AI systems reliably do what we want, for everyone's benefit?

Season 1 · Episode 2
mercredi 20 août 2025 • Duration 57:00
How fast is AI really improving, and how do we know? What guarantees can we expect from AI systems to be robust and reliable? What is AGI and have we gotten there? Can AI systems show creativity or even sentience?
Join Anastasios Angelopoulos as he lays out his thoughts to these hard questions, as he and his partners build the world's most sophisticated ways to test LLMs as they get better faster than everyone expects.
