In Episode #34, host John Sherman talks with Charbel-Raphaël Segerie, Executive Director, Centre pour la sécurité de l'IA. Among the very important topics covered: autonomous AI self replication, the potential for warning shots to go unnoticed due to a public and journalist class that are uneducated on AI risk, and the potential for a disastrous Yan Lecunnification of the upcoming February 2025 Paris AI Safety Summit.
