Title: AI would be a lot less alarming if we understood agents
Description: In this talk, John will discuss why and how fundamental questions about agency—as they are asked, among others, by scholars in biology, artificial life, systems theory, etc. - are important to making progress in AI alignment. John gave a similar talk at the annual ALIFE conference in 2023, as an attempt to nerd-snipe researchers studying agency in a biological context.
