Intro to AI Evaluations |Virtual Workshop Series

A free, public workshop—no technical background needed ​AI systems can now write code, imitate human conversation, strategize, and even deceive. But despite how often we use these tools, most people still have no idea how they actually work—or how researchers test whether they’re safe. ​This workshop pulls back the curtain on modern AI systems and explores the emerging field of AI evaluations (“evals”): the methods researchers use to measure what these models are capable of, where they fail, and how they might become dangerous. ​ Together, we’ll tackle questions like: ​ How are large language models actually created —and how are they different from traditional software? ​ Reasoning : What is “chain-of-thought” reasoning, and why are…
