Fwd: Amazon Trusted AI Challenge
by Naren Ramakrishnan 18 Jul '24

18 Jul '24

*Relevant for many of you working in LLMs and Trustworthy AI.* Amazon is inviting applications from university student teams for the Amazon Trusted AI Challenge, a global university competition to drive secure innovation in generative AI technology. This year’s challenge focuses on responsible AI and specifically on large language model (LLM) coding security. University students will compete in a tournament-style challenge as either model developer teams or red teams to enhance the AI user experience, prevent misuse, and enable users to build more secure code. Model developer teams will build security features into code-generating models, while red teams will develop automated techniques to test these models. Each round will allow teams to refine their models and techniques based on multi-turn interactions, identifying strengths and weaknesses. Amazon will select up to 10 teams for the competition starting November 2024, which will run through the academic year. Each of the 10 selected teams will receive $250,000 in sponsorship along with monthly AWS credits, and winning teams have a chance to win an additional $700,000 in cash prizes. The Amazon Trusted AI Challenge aims to enhance the safety, reliability, and trustworthiness of LLMs powering AI-assisted software development tools. With the rise of generative AI coding assistants, these technologies demonstrate unprecedented innovative capabilities and offer exciting opportunities to ensure responsible and reliable use. This challenge looks to inspire developers, scientists and researchers to create solutions that enhance AI-assisted coding tools' ability to protect users and systems. Proposals to participate are due Sept. 1, 2024. For more information about the challenge, including rules and frequently asked questions, visit the Amazon Trusted AI Challenge <https://www.amazon.science/trusted-ai-challenge> landing page. You can also email questions directly to amazon-challenge(a)amazon.com <amazon-challenge@amazon.com?subject=Amazon%20Trusted%20AI%20Challenge:%20Question> .
