Safe Artificial Intelligence May Start with Collaboration - Future of Life Institute

Research Culture Principle: A culture of cooperation, trust, and transparency should be fostered among researchers and developers of AI. Competition and secrecy are just part of doing business. Even in academia, researchers often keep ideas and impending discoveries to themselves until grants or publications are finalized. But sometimes even competing companies and research labs work together. It's not uncommon for organizations to find that it's in their best interests to cooperate in order to solve problems and address challenges that would otherwise result in duplicated costs and wasted time.
