ABSTRACT
My dissertation asks two fundamental questions: What are the risks of AI? And what should be done about them? My research goes beyond existential threats to humanity to consider seven dimensions of AI risk: military, political, economic, social, environmental, psychophysiological, and spiritual. I examine extant AI risk mitigation strategies and, finding them insufficient, use a democratic governance framework to propose alternatives. This paper outlines the project and introduces the risk dimensions.

Search based risk mitigation planning in project portfolio management
ICSSP 2013: Proceedings of the 2013 International Conference on Software and System ProcessSoftware projects are always facing various risks. These risks should be identified, analyzed, prioritized, mitigated, monitored and controlled. After risks are identified and analyzed, resources must then be devoted to mitigation. However, risk ...
