#14 Buck Shlegeris on AI control


Listen Later

Buck Shlegeris is the CEO of Redwood Research, a non-profit working to reduce risks from powerful AI. We discussed Redwood's research into AI control, why we shouldn't feel confident that witnessing an AI escape attempt would persuade labs to undeploy dangerous models, lessons from the vetoing of SB1047, the importance of lab security and more. 

Posts discussed:

  • The case for ensuring that powerful AIs are controlled
  • Would catching your AIs trying to escape convince AI developers to slow down or undeploy?
  • You can, in fact, bamboozle an unaligned AI into sparing your life
