Abstract

I will present on efforts to achieve the long-term dream of harnessing AI to extend human capabilities in a cohesive, seamless manner. I will cover promising research directions, including methods to identify and leverage the complementarity of human intellect and AI prowess, techniques for guiding a mix of machine and human initiatives, and efforts on achieving mutual understanding between people and AI systems. I will consider as a thread through the presentation the relevance of recent developments with large language models that are demonstrating surprising glimmers of broader, more general intelligence.
