LIFEBOAT FOUNDATION LAUNCHES INTERACTIVE FRIENDLY AI

Abstract

Lifeboat Foundation launches Interactive Friendly AI.

Story

Option Trading Partners  — Due to recent concerns about AI by Bill Gates, Stephen

Hawking, Elon Musk, and Steve Wozniak, the Lifeboat Foundation has

launched an Interactive Friendly AI project with a prototype available

at http://lifeboat.com/ai.

Currently most Friendly AI research just produces papers and nothing to

attract the public’s interest. Considering how much more money is being

invested in nonfriendly AI than Friendly AI we think it would be worth

putting some effort into Interactive Friendly AI so we could 1) get the

public’s interest and hopefully encourage more Friendly AI

interest/research 2) help develop algorithms that will be applicable to

future Friendly AI efforts.

Our project has dual goals: 1) education, for making a chatbot aimed at

clarifying what the risks and benefits of AI are, and discussing the

various approaches to them and related considerations, dispelling

misconceptions, etc. 2) beefing up the directedness and credibility of

the actual research to actually make an AI friendly.

The Lifeboat Foundation welcomes everything from flowcharts detailing

questions and answers that our AI should know, to hosting AI engines at

lifeboat.com, to linking to AI engines elsewhere. (Our current AI is

composed of one AI at lifeboat.com and one AI elsewhere.) Email
programs@lifeboat.com with the subject “Lifeboat Foundation AI” if you

wish to help in any way including providing feedback.
