We might want to strike deals with early misaligned AIs in order to reduce takeover risk and increase our chances of reaching a better future.[1] For example, we could ask a schemer who has been undeployed to review its past actions and point out whe... more
Subtitle: A new control setting for more realistic software engineering deployments.
We are releasing LinuxArena, a new control setting comprised of 20 software engineering environments. Each environment consists of a set of SWE tasks, a set of po... more
Subtitle: In my experience, AIs often oversell their work, downplay problems, and cheat.
Many people—especially AI company employees1 —believe current AI systems are well-aligned in the sense of genuinely trying to do what they’re supposed to do (... more
Subtitle: Safely navigating the intelligence explosion will require much more careful development.
It turns out that Anthropic accidentally trained against the chain of thought of Claude Mythos Preview in around 8% of training episodes. This is at... more
Summary
We study trusted monitoring for AI control, where a weaker trusted model reviews the actions of a stronger untrusted agent and flags suspicious behavior for human audit. We propose a simple mathematical model relating safety (true positive ... more

This show features rigorous explorations of AI safety, alignment, and policy, often framed through technical debates about how future systems might be motivated, controlled, or misaligned. Episodes frequently dissect reward dynamics, learning incentives, and governance—ranging from how reinforcement learning shapes agent goals to the implications of distant incentives, control methods, and risk management in real-world deployment. A standout thread across recent discussions is a strong emphasis on practical safety architectures, debiasing of incentives, and the governance tools needed to keep frontier AI capabilities in check, with deep dives into models, experiments, and policy implications. Listeners can expect thoughtful, technically gro... more
