Transformative AI and Compute - Reading List

This is a link post to the reading list about Transformative AI and Compute by Lennart Heim.

Readings within the list are put into the following buckets:

1. Compute in the AI Production Function: Why compute matters for AI
   • Compute is one of the key drivers of AI progress.
2. Compute Supply Landscape: How chips are produced and used
3. Compute Governance: How can we govern compute to achieve beneficial AI outcomes?
   • Using compute as a governance node by either (a) monitoring, (b) restricting, or (c) promoting access.
4. Compute-Based Transformative AI Forecasting
   • How much compute we might need to achieve certain transformative and potentially dangerous capabilities
   • How much compute we will have in the future and which computing paradigms will dominate
5. Others: Books, research questions, related topics, newsletters, podcasts, career advice, forecasting
