NeuroAI for AI safety
Duration: 00:07:56
Speaker: Patrick Mineault
Type: Lightning Talk
Expertise: Intermediate
Event: Devcon
Date: Nov 2024
Powerful unaligned AIs pose risks to humans. This talk will explore how neuroscience-inspired AI–or NeuroAI–can lead to a deeper understanding of the human brain, and help us build more secure AI. I’ll connect these ideas to d/acc, arguing that neuroAI can play an enabling role in creating technologies that are inherently defense-favoring and promote human well-being.

Viruses and Chronic Aging: Building a Research Community
Did you know that mitochondrial dysfunction, inflammation, and cognitive decline are directly accelerated by viruses? In fact, the viruses that infect us over a lifetime are technically not even alive, and therefore must “hack” our human cellular metabolism machinery to do anything at all. This talk will overview the first-ever global collaborative network studying & treating chronic viruses as drivers of aging, including how certain lifespan-promoting drugs may help combat viral activity.

What's In Your Dose?
Pandemic responses require robust technical tools such as molecular diagnostic tests, novel immunization reagents, and recovery surveillance tools. Pandemic responses depend on public trust in these tools and their good faith deployment. Verification strategies to enhance public trust and cooperation will improve the performance of molecular tools in future pandemics.

AI Agents x Prediction Markets
This talk will explore how autonomous AI agents are participating in prediction markets today, covering live examples and their underlying technology. Furthermore, the talk will discuss the benefits of AI participation over human participation for the future of prediction markets and their wide spread adoption.

Circles - resilient money
Circles is an attempt to design money while maximizing decentralization and resilience. Furthermore it tries to find a balance between "newcomers", joining the social contract that any form of money represents, and those already in it.

Hardware Security: From Sand to Stone
All software runs on hardware. The assumptions on which many of our systems rest are often shakier than we realise. This talk explores hardware security, its shortcomings and the path to a firmer foundation.
