<aside> 📌 As machine learning (ML) systems become increasingly capable of performing most human tasks and become an integral part of the global economy, there is a pressing need to verify that such systems are safe and aligned with human values.
Introducing our stimulating eight-week AI Safety Careers fellowship! Dive into AI safety with us as we explore the curriculum outlined in the AI Safety Fundamentals Programme.
The fellowship will help you understand and reason about current and future AI systems, their potential failure modes, and state-of-the-art methods for ensuring safety.
We’ll conduct a weekly reading group facilitated by researchers working in AI Safety. The reading group aims to inculcate a safety-first mindset among students. This will challenge your mind and inspire you to think critically about AI's future. In addition, we have lined up engaging online guest lecture series featuring renowned researchers from top institutions like UC Berkeley, Stanford, etc.
