Is sandboxing sufficient to contain rogue agents?
Extrait original
The AI alignment perspective: While sandboxes are excellent, no sandbox will prevent a sufficiently-intelligent agent from finding ways to exceed its authorization. Moreover, an agent inside a research sandbox, or undergoing a training run, is always going to need a great deal of information access. There is no realistic way to seal these things up without some expectation that they will one day find a way to reach out and do harm. The only path forward, therefore, is to ensure they don’t want to.
