AI alignment — ensuring AI systems align with human values and serve human needs — remains an unsolved challenge that grows increasingly urgent as frontier labs pursue autonomous and superintelligent systems. In their fireside chat, Audrey Tang and Caroline Green will introduce the “6-Pack of Care,” a bold reframing of AI alignment that rejects vertical control in favour of horizontal cooperation. Drawing on established ethical frameworks and proven technology for democratic engagement, the 6-Pack of Care offers a process where AI systems and human communities continuously collaborate to ensure human dignity and well-being remain at the centre of AI deployment throughout society.
Can technology create a democracy that's fast, fair ... and even fun? Digital minister Audrey Tang shares how Taiwan avoided a COVID-19 shutdown in early 2020 through innovations like developing apps to map mask availability, crowdsourcing ideas that could become laws and creating a "humor over rumor" campaign to combat disinformation with comedy. (This virtual conversation, hosted by TED science curator David Biello and current affairs curator Whitney Pennington Rodgers, was recorded June 1, 2020.)
