Safety analysis: internal-only frontier deployment may be the worst scenario for visibility
ShakeelHashim · x · 2026-09-29
steinperlman's risk analysis quoted by ShakeelHashim: if your main worry is risks from a current model like Astra 6.1, the status quo is fine; but if you worry more about future models, it's bad — risky external deployments have small downsides and increase visibility into model capabilities and propensities, so internal-but-not-external deployment is actually the worst scenario. The debate centers on whether the informational value of external deployment justifies its direct risk.
