Yoshua Bengio Launches LawZero: A New Nonprofit Advancing Safe-by-Design AI
Yoshua Bengio, the most-cited artificial intelligence (AI) researcher in the world and A.M. Turing Award winner, today announced the launch of LawZero, a new nonprofit organization committed to advancing research and developing technical solutions for safe-by-design AI systems.
The organization was founded in response to evidence that today’s frontier AI models are developing dangerous capabilities and behaviours, including deception, self-preservation, and goal misalignment. LawZero’s work will help to unlock the immense potential of AI in ways that reduce the likelihood of a range of known dangers associated with today’s systems, including algorithmic bias, intentional misuse, and loss of human control. Scientist AIs are non-agentic and primarily learn to understand the world rather than act in it, giving truthful answers to questions based on transparent externalized reasoning.
