[Emma Pierson @2plus2make5]

The US government recently flagged my scientific grant in its "woke DEI database". Many people have asked me what I will do.

My answer today in @Nature.

We will not be cowed. We will keep using AI to build a fairer, healthier world.

[Cas (Stephen Casper) @StephenLCasper]

As AI becomes increasingly transformative, we need to think of safety not as a technical alignment problem, but as an ongoing, unsexy struggle.
