Yeah, we can't really get the nice benefits we would like out of these models, helpful code writing and so on without potentially also getting harmful capabilities is what you're saying.
Yeah, that's sort of a gritty lecture, actually.
It is.
Is there some hope of separating the two or containing the abilities that allow AIs to do cyber attacks in a way, for example, where we tune the model, so to speak, so that they are better at defending than at attacking?
No, no, this makes sense.
And this also, this aligns well with Blue Dot's defense in depth framework for sort of, we have multiple layers of defense.
Some of them will fail.
Hopefully all of them put together will allow us to stay safe.
Because AI will impact everything, basically, the risks will pop up everywhere, and we need to take a route where we are defending ourselves in various different ways, in a layered way.
Those are the two risks that you're worried about, bio and cyber attacks.
What are the other two?
The worry here would be that if you say you're a coder right now, maybe you feel like you are becoming, you're being reduced to sort of like a rubber stamp of saying, okay, cloud code, please proceed or implement these changes.
And perhaps, you know, cloud code is so good that maybe you don't even need to check the code.
And then extrapolate that to lawyers.
Okay, this draft of a contract, it's actually good.
I trust the AI.
Doctors, this diagnosis is probably good because the AI is almost always right.
And so suddenly we are not being active participants in the economy in the way we are now.
And we are sort of atrophying cognitively perhaps also.
What is your main worry about disempowerment or how would you frame disempowerment here?
