Joshua Achiam谈思维链可解释性的局限性,指出它不能作为长期AI安全的可靠保障。

AI 摘要

Joshua Achiam认为思维链可解释性过于脆弱,无法作为长期AI安全的可靠保障。他强调不应将思维链必须保持人类可读性作为原则,因为基于该原则的策略注定会失败。他认为应超越思维链保真度,探索更广泛的模型可解释性方法。

true: “chain of thought interpretability was always going to be so fragile as to be an unacceptable backstop for long-term AI safety’ but kicking away the rickety scaffolding before we have something better is insane. Joshua Achiam @jachiam0 A very hot take: chain of thought interpretability was always going to be so fragile as to be an unacceptable backstop for long-term AI safety, and while I admire the optimism and effort involved in protecting its fidelity (and consider such effort to have been worthwhile), I do not think it makes sense to elevate as a principle the idea that the chain of thought must remain legible to humans. I would go so far as to say that strategies predicated on that principle are definitely doomed, in that they will not work eventually, and we should not depend on them or take enduring reassurance from them. Efforts to make models legible to people should go far beyond chain of thought fidelity. Secondarily - I am concerned about news reporting that discloses, or purports to disclose, frontier model technical advances. I have no commentary to make on the accuracy of the reporting; I neither confirm nor deny any of it. But I believe that public disclosures of technical methods for training or inference of frontier models should be understood to accelerate frontier capability diffusion, and it's appropriate for such decisions to require intense debates behind the scenes before proceeding, and IMHO the bar should be set so that the public interest in making specific disclosures is extraordinary and outweighs concerns about negative externalities from capabilities diffusion. 🔗 View Quoted Tweet 💬 3 🔄 4 ❤️ 21 👀 3371 📊 5 ⚡
