AI safety with histories
Histories can be made within the blink of an eye. Much attention has been focused on the efficiency and effectiveness of transformer architecture for the generation of historical texts and images. What we see, though, is also a product of political, safety and legal parameters. In this talk, Marnie Hughes-Warrington will explore the implications of these parameters for the production of histories, including the identification of history as a vulnerability in jailbreaking attacks. She will illuminate history as source of particular tension in the global geopolitics of AI and argue for the value of seeking a new architecture for history making in the 21st century.
