What is Petri? (And Why It Matters) ๐Ÿ”

Anthropic just open-sourced their internal AI alignment tool, Petri, letting anyone modify and use it for free. This move could standardize how we govern AI safety, with organizations like the UK AI Safety Institute already customizing it for their own audits. The analysis looks at whether this creates a new standard for AI compliance or if we're just placing blind trust in Anthropic's definition of "safe" AI. โ€” TIMESTAMPS: 0:00 - Anthropic's Open-Source Bomb ๐Ÿ’ฃ 0:26 - What is AI Alignment? ๐Ÿงญ 0:53 - The Customization Game-Channer โš™๏ธ 1:42 - Who Will Adopt This? ๐Ÿข 1:57 - What is "CMD + AI"? โ€” LINKS & RESOURCES: ๐Ÿ“ท Follow on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/cmdaishow โ€” #Anthropic #AIAlignment #AISafety #OpenSource #Petri #AIEthics #AIGovernance #ArtificialIntelligence #TechNews #AIRegulation

Anthropic think they're the big cheese when it comes to AI alignment. So much so that they've just open sourced their internal alignment tool for anyone to modify. Now, this is quite nice. Petri, an open- source auditing tool to accelerate AI safety research. So, we've discussed alignment. We know what alignment is. Um, acting in within the best intentions of humanity and that actually does what it tells you to do. But what I found quite interesting is the open source nature. Not only is people are people are people allowed to use it for free, you're able to modify it. So the UK AI security institute have modified it with their own preferences. What what do they consider alignment and what it's an they've changed it into an auditing tool to make sure that well AI governance is done correctly in their institute. So I quite like that. I quite like that you can I'm presuming you can run any coding tool through this to be honest. You can say look this is what we it's a yeah governance and and uh what's the word I'm looking for compliance mechanism to say this is how we deem an AI to be workable and whatever within our organization. Petri have already kind of you know taken the lead on that. So quite a nice little I mean it's always good to see open source stuff but yeah it's kind of um that's kind of it. It begs the question who will adopt it and um again anthropic have their own ideas of what alignment is and whether everyone deems that because I think a lot of people will just use this at face value and and won't modify it whatsoever. I mean there's no harm in that but you're taking anthropics trust which we are already doing anyway right open AI are auditing their have got their own alignment um goalposts and all this that and the other so yeah pretty pretty cool this is part of a larger conversation on my show command AI which we stream live every single week we discuss the news and all things related to AI in the world of design and web catch us next week and join in the banter
