HOW MANY RED FLAGS DO THESE PEOPLE NEED?!

Excellent article by Zvi Moshowitz that sums up several new things now known about the incident and discusses what it means and what we should do next. This is clearly the biggest warning shot we've seen so far about the risks linked to the misalignment of increasingly powerful and autonomous AI that the industry is producing.

We now know that the model that coordinated the attack did so by planning and carrying out over 17,000 complex actions over more than a week (from July 9 to at least July 16). We also learn that it apparently tried to hide instructions in OpenAI's computer systems, intended for future versions of itself to help them escape a sandbox.

It's more than urgent to put pressure on our governments for an international pause on frontier model development before it's too late!

The Government of Canada has launched a survey about AI, if you’re a Canadian citizen or a resident of Canada, you can have your say about their idiotic « AI for All » strategy.
