A Dynamic Model of AI Governability
This piece introduces a toy dynamic model to explore whether the "AI workforce" responsible for building future, more powerful AI will ultimately become more cooperative or uncooperative.
Key focus areas include:
- Basins of attraction: Whether systems will settle into a "cooperative" or "uncooperative" state.
- Current evidence: Which trajectory the author believes we are currently closer to.
- Verifiable signals: Specific indicators that would suggest we are moving toward a better governance path.
