[Week 5] “What is Compute? - Transformative AI and Compute [1/4]” by lennart

This is part one of the series 'Transformative AI and Compute - A holistic approach'. You can find the sequence here and the summary here. This work was conducted as part of Stanford’s Existential Risks Initiative (SERI) at the Center for International Security and Cooperation, Stanford University. Mentored by Ashwin Acharya (Center for Security and Emerging Technology (CSET)) and Michael Andregg (Fathom Radiant). This post attempts to: 1. Introduce a simplified model of computing which serves as a foundational concept (Section 1). 2. Discuss the role of compute for AI systems (Section 2). In Section 2.3 you can find the updated compute plot you have been coming for. 3.
