If you’re working at the intersection between cryptogrpahy, secuity and AI, consider joining this upcoming workshop:

Foresight’s AGI: Cryptography, Security & Multipolar Scenarios Workshop
May 14-15, all-day
The Institute, Salesforce Tower, San Francisco

Goals
To help AI development benefit humanity, Foresight Institute has held various workshops over the past years and launched a Grants Program that funds work on AI security risks, cryptography tools for safe AI, and safe multipolar AI scenarios. Our 2024 workshop invites leading researchers, entrepreneurs, and funders in this growing space to explore new tools and architectures that help humans and AIs cooperate securely. In addition to short presentations, working groups, and project development, we offer mentorship hours, open breakouts, and speaker & sponsor gatherings.

Questions we’ll address include

  1. Which challenges in AI alignment, AI security and AI coordination (in particular for multipolar AI scenarios) are critical to address but have not yet been sufficiently addressed?

  2. Which tools in cryptography, security, game theory, mechanism design, and auxiliary fields are uniquely positioned to make progress on these challenges? How can we bridge-build across fields?

  3. In addition to addressing these challenges, are there potential novel beneficial applications that could be unlocked by those tools? Which prototypes can we build now?

You can find all participants and the opportunity to apply on the workshop page: https://​​foresight.org/​​2024-intelligent-cooperation-workshop.


I hope to see you there!
