Brewer asks whether traditional safeguards will work in AI industry
Brewer asks whether kill switches, independent validation, and bans on deceptive safety claims would work in the AI industry. Coxon says other mechanisms may help short term, but long-term slowdown of frontier model development is the only solution.
Thank you, very quickly.
In other industries, you have a kill switch, you have independent validation, you have ban on deceptive safety claims.
Will any of these work in this industry?
Because obviously what we want is great medical research, immigration policy improves, they have small businesses, all the good things.
To any of these suggestions that are
considered here or California, will they work with this industry?
My position is that we need some form of slowdown on frontier model development.
These other mechanisms may be helpful in the short term, but in the long term, I believe that's the only solution to the problem.
