  • The Shift Toward Natural AI: Dr. John Henry Clippinger on Active Inference & the Future of AI
    Mar 10 2024

    Join Spatial Web AI host Denise Holt and Dr. John Henry Clippinger, co-founder of Bioform Labs and research scientist at MIT's Lab City Sciences group, and key figure behind the pivotal letter, "A Natural AI Based on The Science of Computational Physics, Biology and Neuroscience," shares his insights on the future of artificial intelligence. #ActiveInferenceAI #KarlFriston #VERSESAI

    Dr. Clippinger discusses the importance of Active Inference, a pioneering approach developed by Dr. Karl Friston, Chief Scientist at VERSES AI, which draws upon computational neuroscience, biology, and physics to create AI systems that exhibit key attributes of living systems. He underscores the crucial need for principled governance in AI to protect privacy and self-sovereignty, advocating for active inference principles and open-source initiatives through the Active Inference Foundation to ensure global AI safety.

    Exploring societal impacts, Clippinger champions natural intelligence approaches over traditional Deep Learning models, emphasizing the importance of ethical considerations in human-machine interactions. With a focus on educational initiatives, he envisions a future where these principles drive positive change across fields, including addressing pressing global challenges like climate change, fostering safe AI as a public good and shaping a collaborative, inclusive future.

  • Tim Scarfe of Machine Learning Street Talk on Agency and the Future of AI
    Feb 13 2024

    Join Spatial Web AI host Denise Holt, and Tim Scarfe, creator, and host of Machine Learning Street Talk Podcast, for a mind-bending discussion on AI and the evolution of technology. #IntelligentAgents #ActiveInferenceAI #KarlFriston

    In this episode, they explore topics like Active Inference intelligent systems, biomimetic intelligence, and the complex goals that drive artificial and biological entities.

    Tim provides perspective on the need for ethical standards in AI research and development. Discussing issues surrounding data privacy, identity, and centralized control over information, they touch on issues of trustworthiness, transparency, and the challenges of governing exponentially advancing technologies. The conversation examines how social conditioning shapes human behavior and subjective experiences compared to machines.

    They also contemplate future implications as brain-computer interfaces become more common. Could technologies like Elon Musk’s Neurallink enhance empathy by sharing experiences or further divide societies? What does an "extended mind" mean for privacy and agency?

    Additional topics include memetics, decentralized decision-making, transhumanism, simulation theory, and the transition to a data-driven world powered by intelligence. How will hyperconnectivity impact our perception, identity, and fundamental cognitive abilities?

  • Turning Point in AI - Leaders Rally for a Natural AI Initiative
    Jan 17 2024

    Audio Narration of.the article, Turning Point in AI 🚀 Leaders Rally for a Natural AI Initiative by Denise Holt on Spatial Web AI Podcast. #ActiveInferenceAI #futureofai #karlfriston

    A pivotal roundtable discussion held by the Boston Global Forum, the Active Inference Institute, and the Neuropsychiatry and Society Program on December 12, 2023, marked a significant turning point in our understanding and development of artificial intelligence.

    This group of leaders came together to to discuss a letter signed by 25 neuroscientists, biologists, physicists, policy makers, AI researchers, entrepreneurs, and directors of research labs on a joint initiative proposing a radical rethinking of AI’s trajectory, advocating for a model of AI that is fundamentally different from the data-intensive, computationally expensive systems that dominate today’s landscape. They propose that rather than giant neural networks, we need AI systems modeled after natural organisms - displaying key attributes like autonomy, adaptability, and goal-directedness.

    Their meeting signifies growing momentum behind a new approach to AI called Active Inference, developed by world renowned neuroscientist, Dr. Karl Friston, Chief Science Officer at VERSES AI, that leads to more transparent, ethical, and beneficial intelligent systems.

    Active Inference AI is inspired by physics and the biology of life itself, and it is already being advanced by VERSES AI, currently in Beta for their Genius platform with partners like NASA, Volvo, and others.
