Future of Life Institute Podcast · Defense in Depth: Layered Strategies Against AI Risk (with Li-Lian Ang) · 2 Apr 2026 podcast

Basically, just like gain more information, connect with people who are working on this, and then to work out from the information that they have, what is the best next thing that we could be doing, and then to constantly iterate on this.

And I wish I had a better answer that would make my life so much easier.

I would just know exactly what kind of courses to run, what kinds of training to provide, where to point people to.

Yeah, I think day to day, if I think too hard about it, I get kind of sad because I'm like, oh my God, there's like so many things happening and it's all really horrible and I wish I could solve it.

And if I think even just like beyond AI safety, where AI safety is just like one class of problems, the whole world feels like it's kind of on fire.

But yeah.

I think it's kind of debilitating or like makes me feel like unable to act if I think this way.

So I try to focus just like on the problem that I have like right in front of me or like the scope of work or the area that Blue Dot has chosen to invest its time in, which is like trying to build the workforce, like bring more people into the field, equip them with the right knowledge, skills and opportunities.

and to get more people working full-time on this problem.

And things outside of that, I touch on as much as it takes to help us on this.

But ultimately, if I try to think of the whole thing all the time, then I'll just be very depressed.

Yeah, I think it's a wild, wild time.

So when I was in my third year of uni, it was COVID time.

Like COVID had just kind of happened.

And I was feeling like, oh, what am I going to do with all my time?

And I found this like writing program that promised that, you know, like they would help you publish a book.

And it was always been like a childhood dream of mine.

to write novels because I love reading I like spend every night every night without fail I spend like 30 minutes to an hour it's like reading a book

It's like one of my greatest joys in life.

And I love stories.
