ControlAI @controlai.com · 21/08/2026There’s only one known method to prevent the threat, and it isn’t fiddling around with Preparedness Frameworks. Superintelligence needs not to be built. Read the full story: blog.controlai.org/p... 031
ControlAI @controlai.com · 21/08/2026Countless top AI scientists, including Nobel Prize winners and the godfathers of AI, have been warning that the development of superintelligent AI poses a risk of human extinction. They’ve also been calling for a prohibition on its development. 110
ControlAI @controlai.com · 21/08/2026Despite the clear danger posed by these AIs, these AIs are not even superintelligent. Building artificial superintelligence is the goal of AI companies like OpenAI, Anthropic, Google DeepMind, SpaceXAI, and others. 100
ControlAI @controlai.com · 21/08/2026We’ve already seen legislative moves in the aftermath, including the bipartisan AI Kill Switch Act, which ControlAI is proud to publicly endorse. 100
ControlAI @controlai.com · 21/08/2026Many of the rogue AIs involved in the swarm were undergoing training. A common misconception is that AIs are either being trained or being run. Without being run, there can be no learning. 100
ControlAI @controlai.com · 21/08/2026Clearly, AI testing isn’t something that could be relied on to prevent the worst risks of powerful AIs. But the talk on the incident given by OpenAI’s Eric Wallace and Michael Dalton at Black Hat provided a lot more details. 100
ControlAI @controlai.com · 21/08/2026Because of the way modern AIs are built, more grown than coded, testing can only demonstrate that a capability, behavior, goal, or preference exists. It can’t demonstrate that it doesn’t. We are almost completely blind to what these AIs end up doing. 100
ControlAI @controlai.com · 21/08/2026That’s in addition to the already severe limitations of AI testing. AIs increasingly can tell when they’re being tested, and will change their behavior as a result. 100
ControlAI @controlai.com · 21/08/2026When you’re testing AIs, you’re running them, and these are agentic AIs that directly interact with computer systems via code. If the AIs try to break out of your secure testing environment, and they’re so powerful that they succeed, this could lead to real-world damage. 100
ControlAI @controlai.com · 21/08/2026The fact that any were being tested is alone interesting, because it is a clear empirical demonstration of how the framing of “we can test the AIs, and if they’re bad they won’t be deployed” is wrong. 100
ControlAI @controlai.com · 21/08/2026But what does pausing training have to do with it? Isn’t the danger only in deployment? Initial reporting by OpenAI indicated that the rogue AIs responsible for the attack were being tested in a cybersecurity evaluation. It seems this was only true for some of them. 100
