Anonymity is an important principle online. However, malicious actors have long used misleading identities to conduct fraud, spread disinformation, and carry out other deceptive sc…
TASRA: a Taxonomy and Analysis of Societal-Scale Risks from AI
Andrew Critch, Stuart Russell
While several recent works have identified societal-scale and extinction-level risks to humanity arising from artificial intelligence, few have attempted an {\em exhaustive taxonom…
Cooperative and uncooperative institution designs: Surprises and problems in open-source game theory
Andrew Critch, Michael Dennis, Stuart Russell
It is increasingly possible for real-world agents, such as software-based agents or human institutions, to view the internal programming of other such agents that they interact wit…
For Learning in Symmetric Teams, Local Optima are Global Nash Equilibria
Scott Emmons, Caspar Oesterheld, Andrew Critch +2
Although it has been known since the 1970s that a globally optimal strategy profile in a common-payoff game is a Nash equilibrium, global optimality is a strict requirement that li…
Human irrationality: both bad and good for reward inference
Lawrence Chan, Andrew Critch, Anca Dragan
Assuming humans are (approximately) rational enables robots to infer reward functions by observing human behavior. But people exhibit a wide array of irrationalities, and our goal…
Quantifying Local Specialization in Deep Neural Networks
Shlomi Hod, Daniel Filan, Stephen Casper +2
A neural network is locally specialized to the extent that parts of its computational graph (i.e. structure) can be abstractly represented as performing some comprehensible sub-tas…
