Dwarkesh Podcast
Ilya Sutskever โ€“ We're moving from the age of scaling to the age of research

And I think that everyone will actually want that.

It's like the AI that's robustly aligned to care about sentient life specifically.

Dwarkesh Podcast
Ilya Sutskever โ€“ We're moving from the age of scaling to the age of research

I think in particular, there's a case to be made that it will be easier to build an AI that cares about sentient life than an AI that cares about human life alone.

Dwarkesh Podcast
Ilya Sutskever โ€“ We're moving from the age of scaling to the age of research

Because the AI itself will be sentient.

And if you think about things like mirror neurons and human empathy for animals, which is, you know, you might argue it's not big enough, but it exists.

Dwarkesh Podcast
Ilya Sutskever โ€“ We're moving from the age of scaling to the age of research

I think it's an emergent property from the fact that we model others with the same circuit that we used to model ourselves, because that's the most efficient thing to do.

Dwarkesh Podcast
Ilya Sutskever โ€“ We're moving from the age of scaling to the age of research

It's true.

Dwarkesh Podcast
Ilya Sutskever โ€“ We're moving from the age of scaling to the age of research

I think that...

Dwarkesh Podcast
Ilya Sutskever โ€“ We're moving from the age of scaling to the age of research

It's possible.

Dwarkesh Podcast
Ilya Sutskever โ€“ We're moving from the age of scaling to the age of research

It's not the best criterion.

Dwarkesh Podcast
Ilya Sutskever โ€“ We're moving from the age of scaling to the age of research

I'll say two things.

Dwarkesh Podcast
Ilya Sutskever โ€“ We're moving from the age of scaling to the age of research

I think that... Thing number one.

Dwarkesh Podcast
Ilya Sutskever โ€“ We're moving from the age of scaling to the age of research

I think that if there... So...

Dwarkesh Podcast
Ilya Sutskever โ€“ We're moving from the age of scaling to the age of research

I think that care for sentient life, I think there is merit to it.

Dwarkesh Podcast
Ilya Sutskever โ€“ We're moving from the age of scaling to the age of research

I think it should be considered.

Dwarkesh Podcast
Ilya Sutskever โ€“ We're moving from the age of scaling to the age of research

I think that it will be helpful if there was some kind of a shortlist of ideas that then the companies, when they are in this situation, could use.

Dwarkesh Podcast
Ilya Sutskever โ€“ We're moving from the age of scaling to the age of research

That's number two.

Dwarkesh Podcast
Ilya Sutskever โ€“ We're moving from the age of scaling to the age of research

Number three, I think it would be really materially helpful if the power of the most powerful superintelligence was somehow capped.

Dwarkesh Podcast
Ilya Sutskever โ€“ We're moving from the age of scaling to the age of research

because it would address a lot of these concerns.

Dwarkesh Podcast
Ilya Sutskever โ€“ We're moving from the age of scaling to the age of research

The question of how to do it, I'm not sure, but I think that would be materially helpful when you're talking about really, really powerful systems.
