The leading Frontier Model Forum founders are going one step forward to help ensure AI research is carried out in the most responsible manner.
This includes the launch of an AI Safety Fund that’s worth $10 million followed up by the naming of the forum’s executive director who is now going to be Chris Meserole.
As recently confirmed, it’s the first huge alert to come forward from this mighty group of four, ever since we saw the establishment of the leading industrial forum arise in July of last year.
Moreover, other reports highlight how Meserole was given the chance to formally serve as the head of the body during a meeting held at the state capital’s non-profit firm called Brookings Institution.
The Forum mentioned how the goal of adding a new executive director for the first time is to make use of his great experience and focus more on the likes of safe governance as well as growing technologies that may be useful during future applications.
Moreover, any major advancements which were made in the world of AI technology as well as research would make sure things remain safe and secure at all times while staying under the right kind of human observation. In the same manner, it would identify which practices are the best as per the industry’s standards and give rise to accurate data shares among those making the policies as well as others leading the sector today.
So as you can tell, safety and security are a top priority as is the use of AI technology for use in everyday applications. And that can only be possible when the right policies are in place and proper human intervention is focused upon.
For a while now, we’ve seen OpenAI call out these frontier models as those having massive capabilities to cause harm and serve as leading risks to the public.
As the tech giant mentioned, they encompass great power as well as promise for the world but we can only realize their greatness with better understanding when we know how to deal with them in a safe manner while also properly evaluating them. Therefore, Meserole mentioned in his first speech as the executive director how honored he was to take on the role and make the most of the challenges that lay ahead.
Meanwhile, this new Safety Fund worth $10 million is designated to back any researchers working independently from the world of academics, research firms, as well as start-up organizations that are scattered in various parts of the globe. And that is something that this quad had personally vowed to assist with during the year’s start in Washington.
Similarly, another major role has to do with the establishment of a baseline that defines all the AI terms and processes arising from the industry.
The first update on this front was released and it was dubbed AI Red Teaming, thanks to resources taken from case studies of leading tech firms like Microsoft and even Google. To better shed light on what this practice really is, cybersecurity officials like to refer to it as a task where organizations take on ethical hackers and enable them to infiltrate the network systems. In this manner, all security weaknesses are looked over and they’re fixed before bad actors come into play and make changes.
Hence, we can deem it to be functioning like a probe for all the necessary AI systems in place so that all dangers are warded off in the best manner possible.
