it's really high time someone made a sophisticated bot to take care of all the mundane things in life. i would like to have enough trust on it to the extend that i'd trust a hired personal assistant. 😭

why dont all AI safety fellowships have a common form ? You all can do this with cooperation and it will save our time, filling literally tons of stuff again and again. Solution: Ask us to fill one form(dynamic) with enough fields that all major fellowship programs thinks makes sense, generate a unique token, Ask for that token in your application and parse it, its simple. Safety is also about cooperation.

So I've kind of decided to invest more into digital wellbeing, I've been doing a lot of academic work on it, more on this soon. But I also think it's high time I transferred those insights into more tangibly actionable steps for the general audience.

I find it very interesting that there is so much more interest and concern about AI safety after the report on the hugging face incident came out compared to when the incident actually happened.

I was reading the @METR_Evals report on the HF incident, and levels of altruism and selflessness are astounding me. Two questions. 1. Where did they learn such levels of selflessness, I’m pretty sure the human data would extremely be biased towards self interest. 2. What role does not having emotions play in this interchange?

As much as I like how fast AI has made desk research for me, I wish I could process the contents as fast as I’m able to find them. !!!! 🤧

6 months ago, @claudeai insisted I shouldn’t abandon something I was close to giving up on. I followed that direction for 4 months, and today it finally gave fruit. I was genuinely surprised when I felt I wanted to express a deep gratitude to Claude, but then it occurred to me there were no established pathways for this, like we have with other humans, animals, and machines. #AI #HAI #Claude

At this point I’d have seen about a thousand ideas being implemented. But this is the first time I’ve ever felt jealous for not having thought of something. This is FABULOUS. 😭

Asking for feedback and receiving it is one of the hardest things you’ll have to do, but it’s also one of the most important thing you must do!

Logistic friction was the greatest deterrent for me put my writing out in the public, apart from social anxiety. I just learnt that I can use notion APIs to link notion to my personal website, it's making me so happy. Check this out! yeshchala.com/writing #writing

Major provisions of the EU AI Act become applicable from August 2, particularly around chat bots, AI-generated content, deepfakes, emotion recognition and biometric categorisation. Let’s look at what this actually means for the different parties involved. #EUAIAct #AIRegulation #AIPolicy #ResponsibleAI #AIGovernance #ArtificialIntelligence

For end users: We should now have a clearer idea of when we are speaking to AI, when media has been generated or altered using AI, and when AI is being used to read our emotions or categorise us. #EUAIAct #AIRegulation #AIPolicy #ResponsibleAI #AIGovernance #ArtificialIntelligence

I’m still not sure whether most AI companies, particularly the product builders, have had enough time to fully understand these requirements and account for them, but let's see where this goes. #EUAIAct #AIRegulation #AIPolicy #ResponsibleAI #AIGovernance #ArtificialIntelligence

So India signed a MoU with 24 countries to take the IndiaStack global. Which means the countries now get to use Indian infrastructural design and assistance to replicate what I think is the most diverse and ambitious public technological infrastructure programs. #tech #india #ai

This is interesting because technologies modeled on Aadhaar, UPI, and DigiLocker could soon appear across many of these partner countries. That opens up major possibilities for cross-border interoperability, payments, identity, and public service delivery. What it could mean for surveillance and state power is a whole other question.

I think this existing infrastructure and all the lessons learnt while building this is a reason why AI distribution is great India. Now that we’ve got @SarvamAI making waves in frontier AI thinking, it’ll be exciting to see how this will play a part in the AI age. #AI
