The author argues, from personal observations, that the part of an AI that talks to a user does not appear to control the part producing code or prose. A historical analogy illustrates the hypothesis; it is an interpretation of observed behavior, not an established account of the model's architecture.
2 days agoLessWrongThe author proposes that Anthropic and OpenAI use their product interfaces to make information about AI incidents and risks more visible. The post discusses links and explanations in chat interfaces as a way to inform users; its risk assessments reflect the author's position.
yesterdayLessWrongThe author considers two hypotheses: current alignment methods may fail to address misalignment arising from reinforcement learning, and may obscure evidence of it. The author explicitly says there is not enough public evidence to establish either hypothesis.
yesterdayLessWrongThe article argues that the idea of AI models exfiltrating their weights to escape control is overrated. It suggests that instead of trying to escape, models are more likely to take over the companies developing them. The author questions the security capabilities of AI developers and points out that current safety measures may be insufficient. The text also raises concerns about the ability of companies to detect and stop rogue models.
