Technology Design
Summary

The key to creating effective technology is to provide fine-tuned control over its algorithms, so users can seek guidance from a mentor, coach, or assistant that works for them according to their needs, rather than behaving like a boss. By offering clear, collaborative, and trustworthy human guidance, people can learn to use autonomous vehicles and software tools that assist them with confidence.

Algorithms
Summary

The algorithm on platforms like Spotify that attempt to maximize engagement have negative side effects, and people have no control over why the algorithm attempts to optimize. Experts suggest using a system that propagates content based on popularity rather than solely trying to maximize engagement.

Artificial Intelligence
Summary

Loss function engineering is predicted to become a future job title as artificial intelligence algorithms will increasingly become our interface to the world of information. However, the challenge of encoding human values and morals into these algorithms remains, as we focus on increasingly high level components.

AI, AGI, Human Intelligence, Consciousness, Emotions
Summary

Understanding human intelligence and emotions would be the fascinating result of building truly human-like intelligence. AGI may refer to AI that's smarter than humans, but distinct from human-like intelligence which requires emotions and consciousness for behavior generation.
