Presenter
Evan Miyazono
Evan leads Atlas Computing, a nonprofit mapping and prototyping ways to achieve human governance and provable safety of advanced AI. He previously created and led a venture studio focused on public goods funding mechanisms, a metascience team, and a research grants program at Protocol Labs (the company that initially created IPFS and Filecoin). Prior to that, he completed a PhD in Applied Physics at Caltech and a BS in Materials Engineering at Stanford.
Summary:
Growth in AI capabilities will exacerbate the human oversight and review process.Ā Guaranteed-Safe AI is a recently proposed architecture, in which AI systems produce intermediate, verifiable outputs.Ā In this talk, Evan Miyazono will discuss how Atlas Computing is using this architecture to develop narrow AI systems with quantitative safety guarantees.
Before starting Atlas Computing, Evan Miyazono created and led a metascience team within Protocol Labs, as well as venture studio focused on building better tools for human coordination. He holds a PhD in Applied Physics from Caltech and a BS and MS from Stanford.
Challenge:
I’d love to see a great UI/UX for developing formal specifications. One cool question: could we identify and label clusters in the accessible state space of a program, and expect with high (tunable?) confidence that the clustering could distinguish intended vs unintended behavior?
