*We need all the scientific evidence on severe misalignment out in the open, urgently.* TL;DR If severe misalignment is indeed emerging absent a high bar of alignment+control execution, the top priority actions for OpenAI and Anthropic in the next couple months should be to make public all necessary evidence for non-safety AI technical experts to become convinced of the science around loss-of-control themselves. [the below is all my personal opinion and doesn't represent my employer] Any meaningful solution to prevent loss-of-control-of-AI will require pan-US-AI-industry adherence to costly practices around AI control, alignment, and security. Crucially, this will include Meta, SpaceXAI, and even NVIDIA, and almost certainly require the blessing or coordination of the US government if it is to be internationalized. The current politics of AI make it unlikely that even OpenAI and Anthropic's joint technical consensus would be sufficient to motivate USG action so long as the lagging AI players are against it. Even if OpenAI and Anthropic were to go to the White House today with slam-dunk technical evidence of an imminent national security threat of AI loss-of-control absent intervention, the USG would probably not trust in their own in-house reasoning about that evidence, and would look to the views of the other admin-friendly AI players and advisors. These other actors appear largely skeptical. The only solution is science.
