This series examines a set of interconnected questions about how agents with different values should relate to one another, and about the ethics of seeking and sharing power. They’re old questions – but I think that we will have to grapple with them in new ways as increasingly powerful AI systems come online.

The series covers a lot of ground, but I’m hoping the individual essays can be read fairly well on their own. The first essay includes a brief summary of the essays released thus far. There’s also a full PDF of the series here, full audio here, and video/​transcript of a lecture summary here.
