On the Opportunities and Risks of Foundation Models
AI Safety Fundamentals: Alignment
Emergence and Homogenization of AI
Most AI systems today are powered by machine learning, where predictive models are trained on historical data and used to make future predictions. Machine Learning represented a step towards homogenization: A wide range of applications could now be powered by a single generic learning algorithm such as logistic regression. Foundation models have taken shape most strongly in NLP so we focus our story there for a moment.
