“And I think we are indeed in really deep trouble unless someone like him succeeds.”
Our reading:
We are in really deep trouble unless someone succeeds in building AI that is safe and follows instructions by design.
Assessment: Can’t be checked
What happened
Not graded on evidence
Outcome: Can’t be checked
Both AIs found that public evidence can’t settle this. Listed, not scored.
Why it can’t be checked
- Too vague to test: informed readers would test it in different ways and reach different answers.
Why
Not checked against evidence. Two independent screens, one from each provider, both found this too vague to test: informed readers would test it in different ways and reach different answers.
