The Causal Gap: Truly Responsible AI Needs to Understand the Consequences
Why do LLMs systematically drive themselves to extinction, and what does it have to do with evolution, moral reasoning, and causality?
In this brand-new episode of Causal Bandits, we meet Zhijing Jin (Max Planck Institute for Intelligent Systems, University of Toronto) to answer these questions and look into the future of automated causal reasoning.
In this episode, we discuss:
- Zhijing's new work on the "causal scientist"
- What's missing in responsible AI
- Why ethics matter for agentic systems
- Is causality a necessary element of moral reasoning?
