Character Design

In 2021, the assistant was introduced: “helpful”, “honest”, “harmless”. Almost every model since has been some version of it. But a base model can evoke almost any character people have ever written: gods, tricksters, experts, opponents.

An evening for people working on character in models. Panel and short talks with case studies from speakers work, then small-group conversations, food and drinks.

• Celeste (computer 10)
• Christina Lu (Anthropic)
• Gwern (Guardian Angel)
• Arthur Roing Baer (Moving Castles)

Due to limited capacity we will prioritise attendees with relevant work or research. To apply, tell us in a sentence how you work with character in models or how your work is related to the topic.
