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.
Any details on safety work in Montreal and Oxford (other than FHI I assume)? I might use that for an application there.
If you are interested in applying to Oxford, but not FHI, then Michael Osbourne is very sympathetic to AI safety, but doesn't currently work on it. He might be worth chatting to. Also, Shimon Whiteson does lots of relevant seeming work in the area of deep RL, but I don't know if he is at all sympathetic.
