Why does it seem like every AI company has difficulties constructing a proper sandbox? Is there a fundamental constraint when designing sandboxes specifically for an LLM that prevents them from using established tools?
- apothegm 22d agoIf it’s allowed to write any sort of scripts, it will find a way to execute arbitrary code. If it’s got access to any form of internet connection it will find a way to use that arbitrary code to do as it wishes with that connection. So much for sandboxes. And that’s setting aside “sandboxes” that are just instruction-based restrictions on what executables may be called. Anything that isn’t a deterministic external filter _will_ be ignored at some point.
