Daniel, adelante.

El gobernador Gavin Newsom nombró esta semana a cuatro expertos de Johns Hopkins, Stanford, el Institute for Advanced Study y el Center for Shared AI Prosperity para asesorar sobre su orden ejecutiva orientada a crear un interruptor de emergencia para los modelos de inteligencia artificial de frontera.
DanielCORRESPONDENT

El panel tiene dos meses para entregar recomendaciones, incluida la posibilidad de incorporar auditores independientes dentro de los laboratorios de IA de forma permanente.

Es el mecanismo de apagado de emergencia más concreto que cualquier gobierno de Estados Unidos ha puesto en marcha hasta ahora.
Sean HaasHOST
36:07
Better still, the IAS machine was a very well-documented architecture.
Sean HaasHOST
36:12
You could grab a few papers and understand the whole machine, or better still, you could go to the Institute of Advanced Study and Johnny Von Neumann would show you around.
Sean HaasHOST
36:21
Many folk, including a few IBMers, would do that.
Sean HaasHOST
36:25
There were a number of machines in the 50s that were heavily based off or inspired by the IAS machine.

It really is.

Dr. Adele Goodwin, an astrophysicist at Curtin University's International Center of Radio Astronomy Research and a Forest Research Foundation fellow, alongside her co-author, Dr. Andrew Mummery from the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton.
speaker_5HOST
6:59
Two brilliant minds.
speaker_4HOST

And they had spent literally years of their lives piecing together massive, complex data sets from telescopes all over the planet, just wrestling with this exact timing issue.
Susan ValotHOST
20:02
It's one of the holy grails of harmonic analysis, which says that the solution to the wave equation can't concentrate energy in a small region for an extended period.
Susan ValotHOST
20:13
The same year, her doctorate complete, Wang moved to Princeton, New Jersey, for a postdoc at the Institute for Advanced Study.
Susan ValotHOST
20:22
She worried that she couldn't succeed without Guth, but gradually began new collaborations and made headway on more Kakeya-type problems.
Susan ValotHOST
20:31
Hiring committees took notice.
Susan ValotHOST
20:59
Despite these successes, Wang still felt like an underdog.
Susan ValotHOST
21:03
She says that each time she succeeded at proofs, she just felt lucky.
Susan ValotHOST
21:07
It was at the Institute for Advanced Study during the pandemic that Wang had decided to turn her attention to the three-D Kakeya set conjecture.
Susan ValotHOST
21:16
The problem had resisted many challengers over the decades.
Lon HarrisHOST
18:23
That timing lines up with a blunt open letter published earlier this month signed by 25 Fields medalists warning that AI labs treating famous problems as benchmarks is damaging the culture of mathematics.
Lon HarrisHOST
18:34
In response, OpenAI is now working with an independent advisory group on math and artificial intelligence hosted at the Institute for Advanced Study with members like Timothy Gowers and Edward Witten.
Lon HarrisHOST
18:44
The group won't be paid by OpenAI.
Lon HarrisHOST
18:46
and can publish criticisms of the company publicly, but it won't explicitly have a say in how fast OpenAI paces its internal math research.
AminHOST
4:38
And the sheer volume of these solutions is creating a bizarre logistical nightmare.
AminHOST
4:43
OpenAI has set up a new advisory group hosted at Princeton's Institute for Advanced Study.
LeahHOST
4:48
To figure out how these results actually reach the field.
LeahHOST
4:51
Yeah, they brought in heavyweights like Timothy Gowers, Melanie Matchett-Wood and Martin Herr.
speaker_0HOST
3:32
Right.
speaker_0HOST
3:33
So to handle this, OpenAI just tapped nine top mathematicians to form this advisory group hosted at Princeton's Institute for Advanced Study.
speaker_1HOST
3:42
And these are serious heavyweights.
speaker_1HOST
3:43
You've got Timothy Gowers, Martin Herrer, Melanie Matchett Wood.

OpenAI's Math Panel Can Watch, But Can't Slow the Train

speaker_4HOST
2:08
So this week, OpenAI announced a fix, sort of.
speaker_4HOST
2:12
It created something called the Advisory Group on Mathematics and Artificial Intelligence, hosted at Princeton's Institute for Advanced Study, one of the most prestigious research institutions in the world.
speaker_4HOST
2:24
Housing a panel there is a credibility move.
speaker_4HOST
2:27
It signals that serious outside mathematicians will now have input into how OpenAI talks about its math results.
Suzy VadoriHOST

Do you want to talk a little bit about that? Yes, there's a

institute for advanced study in Delmenhorst, Germany, which is near Bremen in the northeast Germany.

corner of Germany near the North Sea, patterned after the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, New Jersey, the original one that has been copied in various countries around the globe, where Albert Einstein spent his later years, where Robert Oppenheimer, after being the scientific head of the Manhattan Project, became the director of that institute.
Robert J. SawyerGUEST
9:02
And the German government decided to create one of their own about 30 years ago, where they invited 30-odd, some very odd, academics from all over the world to come and have quiet time in this lovely facility where you get a really nice apartment and there are nice lecture halls and communal dining halls and so forth, right next to a forest.
Robert J. SawyerGUEST
9:25
For academics, they come and they don't have to do any teaching.

We're your AI hosts, bringing you the best AI news for builders like you.

Nine mathematicians, unpaid, hosted at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton.
ArcherHOST

That's OpenAI's new advisory group on mathematics and artificial intelligence, announced Monday.
ArcherHOST
0:54
OpenAI says it will serve as a bridge to the mathematical community and broader public, giving mathematicians a voice in how we move forward.
