In a bid to democratize the development of AI tools, Claude AI creator Anthropic teamed with the non-profit Collective Intelligence Project to explore a different course for AI development, surveying 1,000 Americans to draft an AI constitution.
“AI is going to have a transformative impact on the world,” Collective Intelligence Project co-founder Divya Siddarth told Decrypt. “Yet very few people get to decide exactly what that looks like. We wanted to build processes so that wouldn’t be true anymore.”
Launched in January by Siddarth—a political economist and social technologist—and researcher, writer, and engineer, Saffron Huang, the Collective Intelligence Project aims to promote collective intelligence for collective progress. In March, the CIP partnered with Anthropic for the Collective Constitutional AI initiative to develop an AI model designed with outside inputs and to explore how democratic processes can influence AI development.
“We wanted to put together some of the work that’s been done in the democracy space, in the collective intelligence space around what it means to make good decisions for whom and who gets involved,” Siddarth said. “There is a lot of research on that with transformative technology, particularly AI, which is something we’ve both been working on.”
