Conjecture

The feedback loop that keeps today's AI correctable (watch a model misbehave, understand why, fix it) weakens as models grow more situationally aware and harder to understand, and may begin to fail soon; this is Red Queen Governance's failure case, correction falling behind capability.

    So then these AIs are getting more and more capable while we understand what’s going on with AI development less and less, and this is happening over a pretty fast period of time.

    I think it’s plausible that we’re going to see this behavioral feedback loop starting to break down over the next short period, as what AIs are already doing gets harder to understand.

    in a regime where the AIs are extremely situationally aware, very, very capable, and we don’t necessarily understand what they’re doing, this feedback loop breaks down.
