    Brain Inspired

    Neuroscience and artificial intelligence work better together. Brain inspired is a celebration and exploration of the ideas driving our progress to understand intelligence. I interview experts about their work at the interface of neuroscience, artificial intelligence, cognitive science, philosophy, psychology, and more: the symbiosis of these overlapping fields, how they inform each other, where they differ, what the past brought us, and what the future brings. Topics include computational neuroscience, supervised machine learning, unsupervised learning, reinforcement learning, deep learning, convolutional and recurrent neural networks, decision-making science, AI agents, backpropagation, credit assignment, neuroengineering, neuromorphics, emergence, philosophy of mind, consciousness, general AI, spiking neural networks, data science, and a lot more. The podcast is not produced for a general audience. Instead, it aims to educate, challenge, inspire, and hopefully entertain those interested in learning more about neuroscience and AI.

    BI 098 Brian Christian: The Alignment Problem Feb 18, 2021
    Show notes

    Brian and I discuss a range of topics related to his latest book, The Alignment Problem: Machine Learning and Human Values. The alignment problem asks how we can build AI that does what we want it to do, as opposed to building AI that will compromise our own values by accomplishing tasks that may be harmful or dangerous to us. Using some of the stories Brain relates in the book, we talk about:

    • The history of machine learning and how we got this point;
    • Some methods researches are creating to understand what's being represented in neural nets and how they generate their output;
    • Some modern proposed solutions to the alignment problem, like programming the machines to learn our preferences so they can help achieve those preferences - an idea called inverse reinforcement learning;
    • The thorny issue of accurately knowing our own values- if we get those wrong, will machines also get it wrong?
