AI and AI Safety Forecasting Seminar + DeepSeek r1 Q and A
Date: Feb 7th, 5:30 p.m. - 7:30 p.m. Central
Location: University of Minnesota Twin Cities, (Room TBD), Minneapolis, MN 55455
This is an interactive 1.5-hour workshop, free and open to the public, focused on AI forecasting and safety awareness.
Our goal is to help participants understand the urgency of AI safety through interactive demonstrations and group exercises aimed at helping people forecast what might be coming over the next year or two with AI and AI safety.
The first portion of this workshop will be a set of virtual talks and demonstrations of current AI capabilities.
The second portion of this workshop will be more detailed forecasting exercises, where we’ll use prediction markets to calibrate expectations and help forecast what kinds of AI developments might come and when.
Finally we’ll go over DeepSeek’s newest r1 model in detail including both technical details and wider implications for AI and AI safety.
