Lucas Dixon will share some mental models for how to think about this new kind of AI. He will cover what the core underlying technology actually does, and how and why that's so powerful. He will also share some fun anecdotes of when things go wrong, and briefly the nature of tools working with LLMs, and some areas that he think are particularly exciting.

Biography:
Lucas is a research scientist and lead of PAIR (People and AI Research) at Google. He works on visualisation, explainability and control of machine learning systems, and specifically language models. His work explores how people can productively and fairly benefit from machine learning systems.
Previously, he was Chief Scientist at Jigsaw where he founded engineering and research. He has worked on a range of topics including security, formal logics, machine learning, and data visualization. For example he worked on, uProxy & Outline, Project Shield, DigitalAttackMap; Syria Defection Tracker, unfiltered.news, Conversation AI and founded Perspective API.
Before Google, Lucas completed his PhD and worked at the University of Edinburgh on the automation of mathematical reasoning, graphical languages and quantum information. He also helped run a non-profit working towards more rational and informed discussion and decision making, and was a co-founder of TheoryMine - a playful take on automating mathematical discovery (from: https://research.google/people/LucasDixon/).
