Interpreting Complex Behaviors of Powerful AI Models
By

This is an early step; there is a long path from this work to fully understanding the complex behaviors of our most powerful models. Our aim is to understand larger models, gradually expand the set of behaviors we can reliably interpret, and obtain safety assurances using our

Sparse Neural Networks Improve AI Model Interpretability Research
By
–
Most neural networks today are dense and highly entangled, making it difficult to understand what each part is doing. In our new research, we train “sparse” models—with fewer, simpler connections between neurons—to see whether their computations become easier to understand.

Misunderstanding of Corrigibility Problem in AI Alignment
By

Corrigibility’s Challenge: Tensions with Coherent Reasoning
By
–
Corrigibilty is hard for different reasons from value alignment. Namely, that it cuts against the grain of coherent reasoning. This is harder to explain and fewer people ask about it, so it is little covered in the book. See eg https://
