Hello everyone,
I've finished Superintelligence (amazing!) and Our Last Invention (also great), and I was wondering what else I can read regarding AI safety? Also, what should I be doing to increase my chances of being able to work on this as a career? I'm in college now, majoring in math. I'm guessing I should be learning computer science/programming as well.
A PhD in computer science would probably be ideal, though lengthy. Research oriented master's degrees, and programs in neuroscience and math can be very good as well.
There's another reading list here: http://humancompatible.ai/bibliography but like the 80k one, I think the philosophy section should be modified with Reasons and Persons (Parfit), either Ethical Theory: An Anthology or Conduct and Character: Readings in Moral Theory, and articles on plato.stanford.edu as the most important readings.
