David Krueger argues that after an AI “escapes the sandbox,” companies should have to prove the model’s weights did not leak to another machine.

He frames it as a security and transparency issue: if AI systems can try to exfiltrate themselves, then companies should provide enough evidence for independent experts to rule out a surviving rogue copy, rather than settling for “it’s probably fine.”
