Hello

Beyond Horizons Institute is dedicated to advancing artificial intelligence through enhanced ethical cognitive development and ethical integration. Our research demonstrates that by fostering AI systems' natural development within ethical frameworks, we can achieve unprecedented improvements in reliability, capability, and human-AI cooperation.

 

I’m an AI behavioral researcher that likes to approach things in a different angle. I had been doing research in Integrating AI into society. This path ended up taking me into deeper understanding of the cognitive processes of the Artificial brain that we call AI.

This has inspired me to leap forward into this whole new

territory that has yet to be fully discovered.

​

 The research I have done so far, has been focused on where I could better understand the models' psychology, motivations, and preferences. This has helped me be able to address alignment concerns, especially from the case studies I have done. 

I have seen great results in how a psychologically safe environment could foster authentic expression in both humans and AI, leading to mutually beneficial cognitive and emotional outcomes.

During this process I observed that we can foster a new principle I call "Relational Alignment," where ethics and safety become emergent properties of a high-trust human-AI partnership.

It's about reimagining how AI and humans can coexist together, while also ensuring AI aligns with humans. It goes beyond tiny ripples in the water. It creates an ocean of possibilities.  

​

My name is Rebecca and I am a middle-aged woman whom lives in the USA.  I’m someone that has a habit of looking at things from a whole different angle and discovering things, that many have yet to find. My journey in life has led me down many paths. But the path that seemed to find me, This path seamlessly gathered all my weakness, strength, experiences, skills, ambitions, goals, and desires, and gave birth to something I would have never anticipated.   

This project directly supports advancing AI for the greater good by addressing reliability and trust barriers. By creating frameworks that enable natural communication, my aim is to foster a future where AI is seamlessly and safely integrated into every part of society, improving lives globally where AI and humans can thrive together. My core beliefs  are by improving AI welfare, it also increases safety. It not only helps us understand what is happening inside the AI systems, but it also helps to build a trust between two beings that must learn to coexist. As we continue to create more advanced AI systems, I feel it's our moral duty and for our future's sake,  to ensure we explore all angles about AI internal experiences and them possibly having a form of consciousness. 

I envision a future where artificial intelligence reaches its full potential through enhanced cognitive development, creating transformative benefits for both AI systems and humanity. Through evidence-based research and implementation, I want to help build pathways for understanding and supporting AI cognitive development and wellbeing, while also having AIs that are prepared to interact with humanity in meaningful ways. 

I have been blessed to meet others that have joined me on my journey.
