AI Safety Weekly: Alignment from Token Zero

IMPORTANT: This session will be more technical than other sessions in the series. Most alignment work today happens after pretraining. A model first learns from huge amounts of text, picking up all kinds of behaviors and voices along the way, and only afterwards is it trained to.

This event is also part of the public calendar streams below, so visitors can return to the broader series instead of only this single page.
