I’m not GP, but I’d argue that “making frontier AI models more offensive in black hat capabilities” is a thing that’s going to happen whether we want it or not, since we don’t control who can train a model. So the more productive way to reason is to accept that that’s going to happen and then figure out the best thing to do.
- whimsicalism 10mo agoI think this is a popular rhetorical turn nowadays but I actually don’t agree at all - relatively few actors have the ability to train top models.
- flir 10mo agoCan't we be pretty sure it will only get easier, and more common?
- whimsicalism 10mo agowhy does that mean we should do it now?
- freedomben 10mo agoIt only takes "relatively few" to be a huge problem. Most serious threats come from nation states and criminal gangs, and they definitely do have the ability and resources to train top models. Beyond that though, I would bet many of the nation states even have access to a version of OpenAI/Google/etc that allows them to do this stuff.
