There has been a lot – rightly – written about how much energy AI will consume and how this affects everything from climate commitments to carbon footprints of the information society. This question is real, and requires some structured thinking – and what I have been missing in the reporting…

Introduction Here is an interesting policy exercise: assume that you had to talk about artificial intelligence and machine learning, and how it will change the way we work, do research, learn and so on in society – but you could not use the concept of “artificial intelligence” at all, but…

One of the key use cases for generative AI that has been identified by observers and analysts is in legal work. There are many different reasons for this — legal analysis is rule-based, legal texts are often well-structured and there are well-defined corpora of texts that should be taken into…

In this recent paper the authors discuss public attitudes to technology as sentient or conscious. The overall take away is well summarized in the abstract: Future developments in AI capabilities and safety will depend on public opinion and human-AI interaction. To begin to fill this research gap, we present the…

A recent paper seems to have found something interesting — here is the tl;dr: Taking inspiration from those problems and aiming for even simpler settings, we arrived at a very simple problem template that can be easily solved using common sense reasoning but is not entirely straightforward, of the following…

In this paper, the researchers are looking at differences in job posting from private and public sector in the US. Talent flows and talent patterns are sometimes undervalued as a metric to understand and track transformation of different sectors, and it is interesting to note that the job postings in…

In this article Robin Hill suggests something that may seem both obvious and strange at the same time: that our artificial intelligence systems might not cut the world up in the same way we do, or that they may not use the same features to cluster concepts as we do.…

A further step in understanding the challenges artificial intelligence will pose for public policy and regulation is understanding the role, construction and problems of artificial agency of different kinds. The models we are discussing today are mostly prompted in different ways, and so are in a way easy to regulate,…

Here is an argument that I have been noodling on lately. I am not sure I agree entirely with it, but I think it is worth considering. It is easy to believe that you are a machine, and it gets easier the more complex the machine is. If the machine…

It seems clear that the ability we have as a civilization to capture energy is directly related to the space of possible inventions we can unlock. If we wanted to do a classical technology tree, we would find, at the joints, the ability to capture energy in different ways. Som…
