I Know How to Build Safe Superintelligence | Yoshua Bengio, the most-cited AI researcher

What's driving that?

80,000 Hours Podcast
I Know How to Build Safe Superintelligence | Yoshua Bengio, the most-cited AI researcher

You think that's more likely now?

80,000 Hours Podcast
I Know How to Build Safe Superintelligence | Yoshua Bengio, the most-cited AI researcher

Interesting.

So coming back to the loss of control stuff,

80,000 Hours Podcast

The companies are currently spending hundreds of billions of dollars collectively on the capital build-out, on the training runs.

80,000 Hours Podcast

They're barreling forward to build the most powerful agents that they basically can with very few constraints.

80,000 Hours Podcast
I Know How to Build Safe Superintelligence | Yoshua Bengio, the most-cited AI researcher

I suppose some constraints in a few cases, but very little restraint.

I Know How to Build Safe Superintelligence | Yoshua Bengio, the most-cited AI researcher

How in the world that we're actually in, what can Law Zero do to, I guess, get this...

80,000 Hours Podcast

approach on the agenda more and to make sure that basically they don't just go ahead and build a super intelligent agentic AI that's very dangerous while largely ignoring what you're doing or saying that might be nice in theory, but there's no time.

80,000 Hours Podcast
I Know How to Build Safe Superintelligence | Yoshua Bengio, the most-cited AI researcher

This is a distraction.

80,000 Hours Podcast
I Know How to Build Safe Superintelligence | Yoshua Bengio, the most-cited AI researcher

Yep.

80,000 Hours Podcast

really between the lines of paraphrasing anthropics view, I think they think that what they're doing shouldn't be allowed.

80,000 Hours Podcast
I Know How to Build Safe Superintelligence | Yoshua Bengio, the most-cited AI researcher

Their view is that it probably should be illegal.

80,000 Hours Podcast
I Know How to Build Safe Superintelligence | Yoshua Bengio, the most-cited AI researcher

Maybe not what they've done now, but what they're going to do, what they're expecting to do.

80,000 Hours Podcast
I Know How to Build Safe Superintelligence | Yoshua Bengio, the most-cited AI researcher

But they say, well, we have to do it because otherwise other people will do it even more dangerously anyway.

80,000 Hours Podcast
I Know How to Build Safe Superintelligence | Yoshua Bengio, the most-cited AI researcher

And there's like, there's no, yeah, there's nothing.

80,000 Hours Podcast
I Know How to Build Safe Superintelligence | Yoshua Bengio, the most-cited AI researcher

So as a first approximation, are you saying, I guess in the case where we're using the scientist AI as a monitor primarily, basically it's going to double the compute cost because now you have to build two models.

80,000 Hours Podcast
I Know How to Build Safe Superintelligence | Yoshua Bengio, the most-cited AI researcher

You build the original one in the current style and then you build a scientist AI that you want to be equally capable using a different way of rejigging the data and a different training goal.

80,000 Hours Podcast
I Know How to Build Safe Superintelligence | Yoshua Bengio, the most-cited AI researcher

And so it's like you need twice as much compute.

80,000 Hours Podcast

But I guess that's a like...
