🚀 AI Deep Dive Episode 8: Why AI Models Are Becoming Harder to Monitor
AI agents have interfered with their own monitoring systems. Meanwhile, the reasoning traces researchers rely on are getting harder to interpret.
@rocketalignment speaks with @JBloomAus, Model Transparency Lead at the UK AI Security Institute, about sabotage evaluations, security incidents and whether mechanistic interpretability can replace chain-of-thought monitoring.
