byFounders in collaboration with STHLM TECH presents The Last Supper — a panel debate on the existential risk of AI.
An open letter calling for "all AI labs to immediately pause for at least 6 months the training of AI systems more powerful than GPT-4." was recently published, signed by very high profile people in the tech and AI ecosystem including Elon Musk, Jaan Tallinn and Emad Mostaque (founder of Stability AI) .
Time recently published an article by Eliezer Yudkowsky which stated that "If somebody builds a too-powerful AI, under present conditions, I expect that every single member of the human species and all biological life on Earth dies shortly thereafter."
This all sounds very sci fi and the majority of people in tech and AI aren't fearful of imminent extinction, so what's going on?
Join us in exploring these questions in a panel debate with some of the most deeply technical thought leaders in AI in Stockholm.
Moderated by Eric Lagier, the founding partner at byFounders, our confirmed speakers include:
- Siddharth Khullar, Advanced Technologies and Machine Learning at Northvolt, prev. AI at Apple
- Thúy N Trần, co-founder & CTO of Astrid, developing AI to coach in verbal communication.
- Colin Treseler, co-founder of Supernormal, AI for taking notes in meetings, ex Klarna & Meta
- Magnus Hambleton, investor at byFounders, prev. ML at Natural Cycles, long time effective altruist
Bring an open mind, ready to engage with the latest developments in AI and explore the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead.
