If I were a CEO/PR team of large tech company that wanted to downsize, I would probably also say stuff like "AI efficiencies drive long term profitability". That said, I suspect in the short-medium term AI might increase sala

1. The model was prompted to follow the original system prompt "at all costs", not the explicitly to plot against the prompter. 2. The point of the test is to determine whether the model has the capability to act against its use

Have you used the best models (i.e. ones you paid for)? And what area? I've found they struggle with obscure stuff so I'm not doubting you just trying to understand the current limitations.

If the model is called by a program which takes the output of the model and runs the commands that the model says to, then takes the output of the commands and passes that back to the model, the model has an effect in the real world.

I feel like you're missing the point of the test. The point is whether the system will come up with plans to work against its creators goals, and attempt to carry them out. I think you are arguing that outputting text isn't runnin

It doesn't sound like there will be standalone Minecraft theme parks, just Minecraft rides at Legoland and other parks. I don't see why you'd be so pessimistic about that.

The concern is that near future systems will be much more capable than current systems, and by the time they arrive, it may be too late to react. Many people from the large frontier AI companies believe that world-changing AGI is 5 years o

Does the use of "foundation" and "multi-modal" for describing this model mean anything, or are those just used as buzzwords? Funnily enough, the only place those terms appear in the paper is in the abstract. Also the pap
