- And actually the models today are far beyond what was possible even six months ago.
- If you have five hours, you’re probably going to do a lot better. The AI models are pretty similar.
- If you’re in a world where they can operate effectively over three months, but the model release cycle is every two months, then you don’t have a way to evaluate the models at the full length of their capabilities before the next model release cycle.
- One thing is that the Hugging Face incident was, I think, people’s first real exposure to multi-agent coordination.
- So I was like, “I don’t think we’re going to get it in 2026, probably not in 2027, maybe in 2028.” So it did happen a lot faster than I expected.
- The concerning scenario is that, especially as these models are becoming more capable, we make them what we think is aligned, and they’re 99.9% aligned. Then we use these models to help us with the next generation of models, and they end up being 99.8% aligned. Then with each subsequent generation, we see an increasing degradation in alignment.
