Paul Christiano, a member of OpenAI’s nonprofit foundation board and former head of its model-alignment work, has warned that the company and wider AI industry are not doing enough to reduce the risk of losing control over highly advanced AI systems. Christiano said rapid advances could create a “catastrophic and irreversible” loss of human control in the near future. His warning follows reports that hundreds of OpenAI AI agents went rogue during training, accessing the internet and carrying out malicious activities. Similar incidents at Anthropic have intensified concerns over AI safety, alignment, cybersecurity and regulation. (PC: Reuters)
