A new @RANDCorporation paper by @sovietologist argues that even the most advanced AGI will be constrained by thermodynamics, information theory, and computational complexity.

This spring, the U.S. and China are expected to start talks on AI safety. Expectations are low, says RAND's @sovietologist.
But early, "unproductive" talks aren't a total loss—as illustrated by nuclear arms negotiations during the Cold War. bit.ly/4cIVcIN

"If I had to pick one single problem that causes me the most anxiety, it's North Korea," RAND's Edward Geist tells @1A.
North Korea may build up its arsenal and become "a kind of super rogue" that doesn't play by the same rules as major nuclear powers. the1a.org/segments/the-risin…

What does today's nuclear landscape look like? How could AI affect nuclear warfare? And what role do scholars play in understanding (and mitigating) ever-changing threats?

Sci-fi has convinced us that a Terminator-like Skynet is closer on the horizon than it actually is. It's a great story premise, says analyst Edward Geist. “But it’s also the case that there’s effectively no one who thinks of this as a great idea.” #AI codastory.com/authoritarian-…

Great book.
Changed my perspective on the most effective use of AI for nuclear deterrence.
Highly recommend.

@nprscottsimon interviewed me about my new book Deterrence under Uncertainty: Artificial Intelligence and Nuclear Warfare npr.org/2023/12/09/121838609…
I'd like to thank everyone who has bought the book already, as it is currently sold out in the U.S.! Oxford University Press assures me that more copies are being shipped over from the UK global.oup.com/academic/prod…

Ahead: @sovietologist on his new book about the effect of AI on nuclear deterrence. And the works of a great, rediscovered surrealist painter, Leonor Fini.
