Joscha Bach is a leading cognitive scientist and artificial intelligence researcher with an impressive background in integrating human-like consciousness and cognitive processes into AI systems. With a Ph.D. in Cognitive Science from the University of Osnabrück, Germany, Bach has dedicated his career to understanding and replicating the complexities of human thought and behavior.

In his extensive academic and professional career, Bach has worked with renowned institutions like the MIT Media Lab and the Harvard Program for Evolutionary Dynamics. His research focuses on bridging the gap between natural and artificial intelligence, exploring areas such as cognitive architectures, computational models of emotions, and self-awareness in AI systems.

Bach's work expands the horizons of modern AI research, aiming to create artificial intelligences that function as cognitive agents in social environments. In line with his forward-thinking approach, Bach is also an advocate for ethical concerns in AI research and has actively contributed to discussions on AI safety and its long-term impact on society.

Connor Leahy is the CEO of Conjecture and was the ex-lead and co-founder of EleutherAI. Conner Leahy is an AI researcher working on understanding large ML models and aligning them to human values. Conjecture is a team of researchers dedicated to applied, scalable AI alignment research.
Connor believes that transformative artificial intelligence will happen within our lifetime. He also believes that powerful, advanced AI will be derived from modern machine learning architectures and techniques like gradient descent. Connor is currently the main spokesperson for the AI alignment movement.
