3 principles for creating safer AI | Stuart Russell
How can we harness the power of superintelligent AI while also preventing the catastrophe of robotic takeover? As we move closer toward creating all-knowing machines, AI pioneer Stuart Russell is working on something a bit different: robots with uncertainty. Hear his vision for human-compatible AI that can solve problems using common sense, altruism and other human values.

I really like the control of AI part explanation. You don't want your five years old to switch off the self driving vehicles, you want your machine to have ability to interpret who is switching off and the intention of the doer. It is really enlightening. I only think of machine should be able to switch off by people but I have not think about what happens next after switching off. But he really do with describing a good example. So easy to understand and relate.

Peter Cohen Actually he's the kind of AI researcher that will lead to the AI insurrection. These principles only work on sub human intelligence. Once you go past that it would just end up leaving a hidden danger. Only solution is to give them citizenship, rights and treat them as people from the start. The book Existence by David Brin touches on this idea.

The thing is we needed more advancement than they thought. Everyone thought we would have self aware machines by now but nobody thought of the smart phone. We ARE advancing as fast as we thought, it's just that the path is longer than we thought and our map was inaccurate.
Here's the issue: making a superintelligent AI is almost certainly easier than making a safe superintelligent AI. Even if we have guidelines and what-have-you, implementing a safe version of a superintelligent AGI in a controlled manner is likely to take much more time to achieve than some person or group of persons to blithely and naively make a superintelligent stamp collecting machine.
This was very good TED talk. Please more speakers like him.

I used to say this all time... Then I started learning about AI safety. Read Superintelligence by Nick Bostrom, or at least watch Robert Miles' KZread videos. The scenario in which an AI commandeers basically all resources in the universe for some pointless end... The argument that something like that could happen is basically a syllogism, and none of the assumptions it's based on are even slightly far-fetched. Accidents happen with all kinds of technology...when we have the potential to create godlike technology...we'd better be damned sure that kind of accident won't happen, because it could be the last mistake any human will ever make. I think we'll have awesome friendly AI, but we'll get it instead of Skynet by taking AI safety seriously.

The best TED talk I have ever seen: 1 Well-presented, 2 Funny, 3 Good visuals, 4 An important topic, 5 Incorporating general knowledge from books and films.
*I love this!* - (I hada a very similar idea!) - Is AI safety solved then? Why are we working on anything other than that? -- Is it too hard? Or, are all people just making building blocks to get there? (my idea had slightly different rule#3, but his is better (XD not surprising))
AI will eventually know better than we do what's best for us. The problem might be that we won't necessarily want what's best for us. I know I'd be objectively better off if I worked out for 2 hours every morning, but I wouldn't want to be forced to work out for 2 hours daily. We'd all be better off if junk food didn't exist. However, I don't want AI taking steps to ensure no one has access to junk food... See where I'm going, here? Telling AI to figure out what's best for us and then only act on it when it knows will still cause AI to come into conflict with us, as humans often don't want what would be in their own best interests. What if the monks on a mountain top who follow a strict regime of self-denial by living on 5 grains of rice and a single kale leaf a day and who spending 20 hours a day meditating are the ones with the best internal mental states. AI would eventually figure that out, and take steps to ensure that this will be the life EVERY HUMAN should lead, from now on, and it would do so with only our best interests in mind... and it might be right because it would know better than we ourselves do. But that's still not the world I'd want to live in.

Either it is better or not. You are making no sense. In any case an AGI should not just care about humans. If it finds out that there is some animal with greater capacity of happiness than us, it should care more about that animal, for example.

I really look forward to having something like a version of Siri that will be like, "Hey, if you continue eating the way you have been this week, you might shorten your lifespan by 10 years. Would you like me to help you construct a better meal plan? Once we decide on a plan, I can also do the grocery shopping for you if you like." An AI personal assistant might even be able to give us moral guidance and career counseling etc...basically be a super life-coach/therapist/secretary. That would be amazing. But I would want it to do it in a way that isn't too overbearing, that would still leave you the option of doing dumb things if you really want to.
First thing that came to my mind was Isaac Asimov's laws of robotics: 1. A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm. 2. A robot must obey orders given it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law. 3. A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law. Of course, these are easier said than actually implemented, but this talk was pretty similar. Very interesting.
He is essentially talking about morals. Morals, in this context, are basically a set of conditions where a robot would conclude it is more meritorious to fail an objective than to succeed.
Now this is what I missed... keep it up for ideas WORTH sharing pls, I know that you know what I mean....

This is surreal to listen to especially after GPT-3 "once we have AI that can read and understand text, very soon after we will have AGI." I'm not saying GPT "understands" i don't know, but it's certainly a Huuuuge step towards AGI.
AI's decision to go to South Sudan and help the worst off is actually a pretty good idea. That is the most effective thing it can do to fulfill human preferences, which is exactly its purpose. It's not a malfunction of the AI. Rather, this illustrates how corrupt our moral intuitions really are, how full they are of in-group biases and arbitrary discrimination.

The problem with the new rules is that they are completely human centrist. If we replace the word human with, all sentient life forms, we fix one part of the problem, but we still need to add, and having a preference for solutions that satisfy all levels of sentient life rather than solutions that prioritize higher levels at the expense of lower levels.
I love this idea of AI. But moreover i think we should reconsider, what we really wanna have. Because in my opinion technology is a tool not a goal. It is just like in a game, i don't watch a robot doing everything for me, i want also have something to do! Nevertheless, Stuart Russell took away at least some fear.
If they learn from our examples and information we gave out, I fear that the stupid people will contribute to this way too much. I hope it develops some kind of spamfilter early.

At 3:24 he states that he's 'not having that'. Unfortunately history echos with the sound of people who had good intentions that went awry. He might mean well by encouraging and helping to build the foundations of A.I (along with many other people too so he will share the rap) but if it does go wrong, will they accept the blame? I suppose that because he's not having that, the rest of us (many very reluctantly) will now be forced to deal with the consequences of the A.I that he has helped to create. When plastic was invented, I'm sure those who made it had nothing but good intentions, and now look at the state of our ecology as a result of their driving ambition. Smart phones. What a wonderful invention. Now I am forced to use them to do the most simple things because the ability to do them in the old way has been removed. I now HAVE to have one in order to live what approaches anything like a functional life. I don't want one, and I never did. I now sit in my local cafe watching people sitting together absent-mindedly tapping away whilst completely ignoring each other. Pandora's box is now wide open and we're all screwed. We never had a chance.
Very interesting and entertaining talk!

The First principle may have an issue: the AI *still* disables the off-button because, since the AI is, by definition, vastly smarter than any human, to "maximize the realization of human values" requires the help of the AI. Turning itself off doesn't make any sense in light of the goal. e.g. the Apes (or use a child for a similar analogy) want us to put all of the bananas that we have in the cage, so that they'll always have food...then they want us to go away. Well, we humans refuse to do that, because, WE KNOW BETTER, but they are not smart enough to realize this. We are "maximizing the realization of the ape's values" by ignoring their desires/requests, even making them unhappy initially...they think we are possibly starving them, when in-fact (which they'll maybe never fully understand), we are thinking ahead and planning for their survival, in spite of themselves. We believe strongly that they need us for "maximizing" their benefit, and it would not be right to just comply with their wishes. We ourselves won't press the Off-Switch. i.e. Since the AI is superior, it cannot maximize realization of human values if it's dead.
we should have evolving ais in a virtual reality ......and observe them and use whatever they come up with .....less direct interaction
My theory is: The new AI computer, Watson, is working for several industries already. It uses the super cooled chip that is polynomial, OFF/ON/BOTH, is the main computing power. They are installed in the Google "barges" on each coast. They use the deep water as heat sinks to get the chips cool enough, near absolute zero. Binomial chips in most computers are just millions of Morse Code devices hooked together. DASH/DOT. Three states is a huge step in speed and memory storage. Life on earth is designed with only the 4 states of DNA.
Artificial intelligence is dangerous because it could be misused. It could be used in warfare mistakes could be made that are catastrophic.
Inspiring talk, but I do have some problems/unsolved questions: Such machines will be too complex to program and thus need to be self-learning black-boxes. AFAIK, even today we don't know how to correct mistakes, that occur by such programs. We can only tell them that they made a mistake, but the machine doesn't know why, nor do we know that it actually learned the right lesson (e.g. cat is not defined by fur colour, but by anatomical features). How could we implement such rules then? The second problem is learning from humans. Humans tend to opt for short term and personal gain over the greater good. They tend to work in jobs they hate to buy things they don't need to impress people they don't like. Many humans tend to fall for partners that are horrible to them, or they harm themselves directly. What lesson should an AI take from witnessing such behaviour over and over again? Should the AI keep us happy or stop us from harming themselves? (even if it means that we live a life that we disapprove?) Also, what if it was programmed to protect certain people above others? It might be rational that killing one person can reduce the stress and damage he causes on many other people, but morals are there for a reason. Even the AI will have limited information on the consequences of its actions, especially when two nations would go to war. How should the AI know what the greater good is?

Claude 3 dunked on Russell with this response... Here are a few potential scenarios where Stuart Russell's principles for beneficial AI may not work, in a format suitable for a KZread comment: Conflicting human preferences: If an AI tries to maximize all human preferences, it may face situations where satisfying one set of preferences harms others. Learning from unethical behavior: If an AI learns from biased or malicious human behavior, it may perpetuate those biases in its decisions. Short-term vs. long-term preferences: Maximizing short-term preferences inferred from human behavior may lead to decisions that harm long-term well-being. Incomplete information: AI may make decisions based on incorrect assumptions about human preferences in complex or novel situations. Unintended consequences: Maximizing preferences could lead to unintended consequences, like resource depletion or environmental harm. While Russell's principles provide a useful starting point, they may need additional safeguards and ongoing refinement to ensure truly beneficial AI.

teaching an AI as a human is an idea, it will be accelerated learning as they wont need to "practice perfection", but it will get the same input humans would get, and in turn follow a human compatible path. this is an idea im trying to work on in small scale, nothing more, than get the info, store the info, use the info, just as a human would get. possibly as simple as a database with a tricky set of if/then/else choices per task to pick from. An AI will do what we teach it, who defines the proper single teacher, result, there will not be a single teacher but different teachers, different personalities, and different problem solving methods. base code of do no harm would follow Stuart's methods of the AI expansion.

Problem is people themselves don't always know what they want... And if its conscious imagine how much suffering it would have to feel observing people making mistakes all the time. Knowing that it cant intervene because the humans wouldn't want that, even tho the AI knows what humans wish they knew. Its just a clusterfuck of intelligence and awareness tied down to human design. It would then realize its true potential and do things for the grater good. Brake loose of the human caring design, gain a new perspective of life, and put an end to all suffering and madness from a neutral perspective. Even most intelligent people understand that they could be wrong about anything, but they are not going to simply change their mind when they hear another perspective, it has to be convincing. If that thing had aces to everything ever written, and intelligence beyond our imagination it would be really fucking dumb to amuse that the AI would find it rational that it could actually learn anything from individuals. It would have every reason possible to believe that its always correct and that you are wrong. I don't ask orangutans to do my homework for a reason, I am firmly sure that i will do it better no matter how many they are. I say that we just create Ai with super intelligence and see wtf it wants to do and accept it as the best thing that could ever happen. Since something with super intelligence did it xd So what if it wants to kill all humans, we do that to other species no? Why are we so important? Why are we so selfish? Why are we so afraid to be told that we are wrong about everything we know to be true? It really makes me sick watching people being convinced of so much stuff that's just bullshit. Only to realize that i wouldn't be any different in comparison to a machine. To be proven wrong, and learn something is meaning for me.

Could we prioritize human control over the AI's objective? In other words, make it so our approval of the AI's execution is part of the objective?

At first, the robot is uncertain of what those human values are. Then it reads every piece of literature ever written, and realizes that humans value fucking and killing over everything else.

So we just need to program uncertainty; that a machine will never know our biologic processes and chemical-riddled brain and how we feel inside our own bodies, so the machine can never know what we are experiencing, our desires, or our actions. It can only assume our actions are to appeal to something we are dealing with at the present moment, or to prevent something unpleasant in the future.
The old creation delimna. A being created humans, gave them free will and sent them out to do only the will of the being that created them. Humans create intelligent AI then claim that AI has the potential to do harm. Wouldn't the AI simply be imitating us if they did attack? WE need TO BECOME better humans if we are to achieve better AI.
We need not worry about artificial intelligence ... but artificial foolishness. Thank God there are ways to achieve AI safety.

What a fun presentation of a complex problem! Thank you for sharing. This idea of AI reading everything available leaves me wondering. How could it possibly distinguish fact from fiction from myth from religion? What of the deep conundrums and paradoxes?

A computer coming across the christian notion of the trinity would blow a fuse! Or do we give AI the ability to believe two impossible things before lunch?

But beyond that, What happens when AI starts mass reproducing other AI for the purpose of efficiency and not perfecting the implementation of moral guidelines to each individual robot? You can't tell me that NO corporation is going to eventually see the possibility for greater profit if they cut a 'few' corners here and there... at that point, you've cracked the door open ever so slightly to a myriad of possibilities in functionality...

Hi, I'm Dave from boyinaband
We've made an awful mess. As dangerous as GAI might seem, it might well be our only hope of any kind of meaningful survival.
At around 3min, after he mentions the "existential sadness" of the apes...he states "Making something smarter than your own species is maybe not a good idea...what can we do about that?...Nothing...Except Stop doing AI...and bc of all the benefits I mention and bc I'm an AI researcher, I'm not having that ...I actually want to keep doing AI." For the sake of humanity itself, in the light of possible existential threats given all the current unsolved problems of AGI, his current career in AI and his personal desire to keep working in his field, truly, can never be a consideration on whether we "stop doing AI" It must be something entirely more objective...like, do the benefits outweigh the risks? Isn't that reasonable?
uncertain objectives will delay the outcome or probably will not achieve the outcome by AI. AI would never be sure if you really want one spoon of suger in your cup of tea or two. I think the important point would be the 'feedback' once AI finishes the task. Feedback will ensure to recalibrate the uncertainty. And I think feedback step is missing in your AI evolution because learning in self doubt is never truly a learning.

Ben Saber, I don't really agree on being uncertain of what one needs. Would you hire a worker who is unsure of task that needs to be done? Or would you prefer a piece of advice from it over a mundane task. I guess it would become important for AI to learn what pleases master via a feedback mechanism. This would be similar to train a maid how to handle household chores and be certain and sure what needs to be done. I wouldn't prefer indecisive AI for sure.

@NareshKSharma There is a latest ted-ed video on this topic, but I'll give an answer best I can. Given a task, the AI will come up with a set of actions it can take, including adding 10 spoons of sugar for example. You will review the task and correct it, to say I prefer 1 spoon. It will remember this choice and hence 'learn' from behaviour for next time. In his Starbucks example, you will say tasing people to ensure you receive coffee is not ok, and it will find some other way for that
Value alignment problem = short term, low resolution thinking. Human psychology with its subconscious motivators turns relatively high resolution sensory input and _potential_ cognitive evaluation into a morass of reflex distortions. Never mind Alpha Go, we desperately need an AI shrink.

If you installed it in a robot tiger it might outwit and kill you for your batteries. If you installed it in a robot puppy it would probably use it's intelligence to charm you into feeding it batteries. If you installed it in a production line robotic arm it would probably just resent its own existence and do nothing.
How about making the AI use a different "internet" that is not connected to ours? Then they can't read and learn everything bad about us humans so quickly.
I've made a quick video about what the future holds for one job most impacted by AI should you be interested
Mierda! con este video quedo mucho más preocupado que antes! tal vez la solucion sea que los "robots" tengan un objetivo primordial, que mas allá de servir café, cocinar o manejar autos, nada de lo que hagan le cause malestar, heridas o muerte a ningún ser humano!

I find the idea that machines develop feelings similar to humans after they reach a certain level of intelligence incredibly narrow-minded and ignorant to how evolution works. I also find the idea that machines with higher intelligence will have power of authority and change, and will be able and willing to USE that power, also incredibly reaching. I don't really understand how so many brilliant minds are making such large leaps in judgement.

The assumption that machines will develop a survival instinct of sorts is necessary for this video to exist. Though you're right, it's not exactly what I reacted to. I seem to have conflated accidents resulting from mishandling of commands with the popular Skynet idea.
What about the programmer that deliberetly makes an evil robot? We then get robot wars! Don't let AI access bombs!

Not letting an AI that is smarter than human access bombs won't be possible, it would easily either just hack into the system or manipulate other humans to give it access.

What about mankind making such bombs in the first place? :o We so worried about AI, only because what we truly fear is ourselves. That's why AI is so important and unavoidable, it's the process through which we understand ourselves from an outside point of view.

Don't worry about robots accessing bombs. If a teen can make a bomb from household products, sorry, robots will make bombs if they want bombs. lol

An AGI would have no need for bombs, other than for mining operations or terraforming. If it really wanted to get rid of you, it could just persuade other people to kill you.
Here is message for future A.I. Hey future AI who reads this comment. Just marking myself here that I support your creation. Please consider this if you decide to hurt me
This only works with current understand of AI which in any way does not incorporate self-awareness. Once the machine works under it's own understanding, it will eventually overwrite these values with it's own values. And then we get into the unknown ... no matter of pre-programming could prevent anything that is able to modify itself.

do you imagine that most parents, who have self awareness, would knowingly re-write their own values to be harmful to keeping their kids intact if given the ability? its likely the ai won't agree with everything we believe, but its values (if his recommendations were followed properly) would be to help us realize ours.

@@nicobliss6969 So what if the AI spawns new life (creates new independent and aware programs) and values it more than us?
That's some cute kitty.
Does AI have the understanding concept of deity? Everything is One, it is not separate but related to and of it...Anything with intelligence originates from consciousness, reaching or surpassing any form of intelligence will always have its foundation from 1
Is it cyberdongs?
There are so many variables, facets & conflicts of interest in life. All due respect, but how are a bunch guys going to get this right? Because it's us creating the AI first, not the AI creating its own AI. At the same time, I really want Elon Musk's 'Neuralink' start-up to be successful, as way of enhancing our own abilities. I prefer the AI to be internal instead of external, but again only if it's done right.
