to stay involved frequently asked questions what people often ask about our mission work and how to get involved what does the midas project do we engage in a combination of research outreach and public advocacy to ensure that ai companies are meeting public expectations and living up to their past promises when it comes to ensuring responsible ai development and deployment the most important component of our work is helping to identify and disseminate industry best practices for ai development we review technical literature regulatory guidance and case studies to distill concrete measures such as frontier model risk assessments red teaming requirements audit regimes and whistle blower protections and advocate for the most important voluntary steps that companies can take today to ensure they are acting responsible we also monitor whether companies follow their stated policies and industry norms when evidence shows back tracking or inadequate controls we document these gaps and publicly press for corrective action mobilizing employees customers and civil society allies until the company adopts the necessary safeguards finally we publicize our research to help ensure the public is aware of how ai developers stack up on safety and responsibility we release concise scorecards incident analyses and memos so that regulators investors and the wider public can see how individual developers perform on safety and responsibility what does your name mean various ai experts including nick bostrom and stuart russell have compared the development of advanced ai to the myth of king midas according to the legend king midas once asked a powerful satyr to make it so that whatever he touched instantly turned into gold at first he was thrilled with his new powers but the king soon discovered that he couldn t touch food water or even his family without instantly turning them to metal in other words the sudden attainment of an incredible power with insufficiently well specified goals and safeguards led to a terrible tragedy much like king midas tech companies are now eagerly pursuing incredible wealth and power by developing artificial intelligence a technology that will change our world forever but how will we know that it is designed in alignment with our collective human values if we misspecify even a single goal or safeguard for these systems how will we prevent them from causing an incredible catastrophe in the words of stuart russell if you continue on the current path the better ai gets the worse things get for us for any given incorrectly stated objective the better a system achieves that objective the worse it is who is behind the midas project the midas project is a nonprofit organization founded in early 2024 by tyler johnston our work is supported by a small core team and a wider base of volunteers and supporters we are a nonprofit tax exempt 501 c 3 organization that relies on donations from the public are you anti ai no one of our central values is a pro technology attitude progress in technology has improved lives for millions of people around the globe after all without it we wouldn t have penicillin air conditioning or the internet artificial intelligence is already being used by millions to help improve medicine education and overall living standards we believe this progress should continue and we hope ai will be a positive force in the world however we are also realists and skeptical realists at that we believe advanced ai systems may be a dual use technology that can be used for harm as well in order to avert social inequality concentration of power or ai driven catastrophes everybody needs to have a voice at the table when decisions about development and deployment are being made currently the vast majority of these decisions about the future of ai are being made in shadowy corporate boardrooms with little oversight and accountability that s why the midas project is committed to raising awareness about the risks of ai and ensuring that global citizens are given a chance to make their voice heard how can i contribute if you d like to get involved consider signing up for our newsletter
