| | | | | Update (Nov. 22): Theoretical computer scientist and longtime friend-of-the-blog Boaz Barak writes to tell me that, coincidentally, he and Ben Edelman just released a big essay advocating a version of "Reform AI Alignment" on Boaz's Windows on Theory blog, as well as on LessWrong. (I warned Boaz that, having taken the momentous step of posting... | |

| | | | | TL;DR:Strong problem-solving systems can be built from AI systems that play diverse roles, LLMs can readily play diverse roles in role architectures, and AI systems based on role architectures can be practical, safe, and effective in undertaking complex and consequential tasks. This article explores the practicalities and challenges of aligning large language models (LLMs[1]) to play central roles in performing tasks safely and effectively. It highlights the potential value of Open Agency and related role architectures in aligning AI for general applications while mitigating risks. | |

| | | This is a new introduction to AI as an extinction threat, previously posted to the MIRI website in February alongside a summary. It was written independently of Eliezer and Nate's forthcoming book, If Anyone Builds It, Everyone Dies, and isn't a sneak peak of the book. Since the book is long and costs money, we expect this to be a valuable resource in its own right even after the book comes out next month.[1] The stated goal of the world's leading AI companies is to build AI that is general enough to do anything a human can do, from solving hard problems in theoretical physics to deftly navigating social environments. Recent machine learning progress seems to have brought this goal within reach. At this point, we would be uncomfortable ruling out the possibi... | ||
