Embroidery CEO @ZackKorman says the AI safety debate keeps jumping from today’s cyber failures straight to “machine god,” instead of proving we can secure everything in between: "The discussion typically stops when we get to, yeah, but Zack, imagine the model's even smarter. It's sort of like a four-year-old going, and then the god lasers out of its eyes." "If we give birth to a machine god that can commit any egregious act on the intellect alone, no one's gonna be around to make fun of me for being wrong. But prior to that point, if you wanna make that argument, you better prove you're good at the security stuff before it." "We're only talking about cybersecurity for the purposes of talking about how it doesn't work when we achieve machine god. All of the points prior to machine god will work." "If it was framed as, one group thinks there's a machine god and the solution is to make it nice, and another group thinks the solution is to secure things so it doesn't kill people in its pre-god state, people would be like, yeah, make sure it's secure."
