The next step of AI will be physical
This is the focus of @kesai.eu, an open science lab dedicated to the next frontier of physic @kyutai-labs.bsky.social.
KE:SAI brings together leading research in Tübingen and Paris to advance world models and robotics through a fully open technology stack.
The Breach: When AI Starts to Cheat 🚨
New research by PIs Jonas Geiping and Maksym Andriushchenko says we have a major blind spot. Most safety systems plan to rely on a smaller monitor model to watch over an untrusted AI agent.
