Does AI Competition = AI Alignment? Debate with Gil Mark

My friend Gil Mark, who leads generative AI products at LinkedIn, thinks competition among superintelligent AIs will lead to a good outcome for humanity. In his view, the alignment problem becomes significantly easier if we build multiple AIs at the same time and let them compete.I completely disagree, but I hope you’ll find this to be a thought-provoking episode that sheds light on why the alignment problem is so hard.00:00 Introduction02:36 Gil & Liron’s Early Doom Days04:58: AIs : Humans :: Humans : Ants08:02 The Convergence of AI Goals15:19 What’s Your P(Doom)™19:23 Multiple AIs and Human Welfare24:42 Gil’s Alignment Claim42:31 Cheaters and Frankensteins55:55 Superintelligent Game Theory01:01:16 Slower Takeoff via Resource Competition01:07:57 Recapping the Disagreement01:15:39 Post-Debate BanterShow NotesGil’s LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/gilmark/Gil’s Twitter: https://x.com/gmfromgmWatch the Lethal Intelligence Guide, the ultimate introduction to AI x-risk! https://www.youtube.com/@lethal-intelligencePauseAI, the volunteer organization I’m part of: https://pauseai.infoJoin the PauseAI Discord — https://discord.gg/2XXWXvErfA — and say hi to me in the #doom-debates-podcast channel!Doom Debates’ Mission is to raise mainstream awareness of imminent extinction from AGI and build the social infrastructure for high-quality debate.Support the mission by subscribing to my Substack at https://doomdebates.com and to https://youtube.com/@DoomDebates Get full access to Doom Debates at lironshapira.substack.com/subscribe
