>”AI is getting more powerful. It also makes a lot of mistakes. And it’s being used more often. How do we make sure (a) it’s being used for good, and (b) it doesn’t accidentally do terrible things that we didn’t want.”
Very similar to what I currently use!
I’ve been training with AI Safety messaging for a bit, and I’ve stuck to these principles:
1. Use simple, agreeable language.
2. Refrain from immediately introducing concepts that people have preconceived misconceptions
So mine is something like:
1. AI is given a lot of power and influence.
2. Large tech companies are pouring billions into making AI much more capable.
3. We do not know how to ensure this complex machine respects our human values and doesn’t cause great harm.
I do agree that this understates the risks associated with superintelligence, but in my experience speaking with laymen, if you introduce superintelligence as the central concept at first, the debate becomes “Will AI be smarter than me?” which provokes a weird kind of adversarial defensiveness. So I prioritise getting people to agree with me before engaging with “weirder” arguments.
