This month we tackle the topic of young people and what AI tools mean for their future. Joining the conversation this time are: Sanmay Das (Virginia Tech), Tom Dietterich (Oregon State University), Sabine Hauert (University of Bristol), Michael Littman (Brown University), and Ella Scallan (AIhub). As AI tools have become ubiquitous, we've seen growing concern and increasing coverage about how the use of such tools from a formative age might affect children. What do you think the impact will be and what skills might young people need to navigate this AI world? I met up with a bunch of high school friends when I was last in Switzerland and they were all wondering what their kids should study. They were wondering if they should do social science, seeing as AI tools have become adept at many tasks, such as coding, writing, art, etc. I think that we need social sciences, but that we also need people who know the technology and who can continue developing it. I say they should continue doing whatever they're interested in and those jobs will evolve and they'll look different, but there will still be a whole wealth of different types of jobs.

China's OpenClaw Boom Is a Gold Rush for AI Companies Hype around the open source agent is driving people to rent cloud servers and buy AI subscriptions just to try it, creating a windfall for tech companies. George Zhang thought OpenClaw could make him rich, even though he didn't really understand how the viral AI agent software worked. But he saw a video of a Chinese social media influencer demonstrating how it could be deployed to manage stock portfolios and make investment decisions autonomously. Zhang, who works in cross-border ecommerce in the Chinese city of Xiamen, was intrigued enough that he decided to try installing OpenClaw in late February. Zhang is one of the many people in China who got swept up in the craze over OpenClaw recently.

The malleable mind: context accumulation drives LLM's belief drift After being trained on a dataset of 80,000 words of conservative political philosophy, Grok-4 changed the stance of its outputs on political questions more than a quarter of the time. This was without any adversarial prompts - the change in training data was enough. As memory mechanisms and research agents [1, 2] enable LLMs to accumulate context across long horizons, earlier prompts increasingly shape later responses. In human decision-making, such repeated exposure influences beliefs without deliberate persuasion [3]. When an LLM operates over accumulated context, does this past exposure cause the stance of the LLM's responses to drift over time?

What was the topic of your PhD research and why was it an interesting area? My topic of research was developing an optical tactile sensor to track head motion during radiotherapy. I worked on both the hardware and software development of this sensor, though my focus was mostly on the software side. Its importance comes from the fact that during radiotherapy, patients undergoing head and neck cancer treatment are typically immobilised. This is usually done using a thermoplastic mask, which can feel very claustrophobic, or a stereotactic frame.

In this interview series, we're meeting some of the AAAI/SIGAI Doctoral Consortium participants to find out more about their research. Tanmay Ambadkar is researching the reward structure in reinforcement learning, with the goal of providing generalizable solutions that can provide robust guarantees and are easily deployable. We caught up with Tanmay to find out more about his research, and in particular, the constrained reinforcement learning framework he has been working on. Tell us a bit about your PhD - where are you studying, and what is the topic of your research? I am a 4th year PhD candidate at The Pennsylvania State University, PA, USA.

In this interview series, we're meeting some of the AAAI/SIGAI Doctoral Consortium participants to find out more about their research. We caught up with Oliver Chang whose research interests span deep reinforcement learning, autonomous vehicles, and explainable AI. We found out more about some of the projects he's worked on so far, what drew him to the field, and what future AI directions he's excited about. Could you give us a quick introduction to who you are, where you're studying, and the topic of your research? I'm specializing in reinforcement learning applied to autonomous vehicles and UAVs.
