Holiday Special: AI Safety Update

Show Notes

Welcome back to the show that keeps you informed on all things artificial intelligence and natural nonsense.

In our holiday episode, Mason opens a rather unique Christmas present from Perry, we invite a special guest to help explain the infamous "Paperclip Maximizer" thought experiment, and we discuss an interesting (and somewhat disturbing) new AI Safety paper from Apollo Research.
