AI companies should be able to answer some very basic questions about their training process, such as: Did the AI ever actively try to undermine its own alignment training while it was going through the training? The answer to this should be an unequivocal no, and right now we are completely relying on AI companies to both carefully check this themselves and then truthfully report this to the public. And we’ve seen from recent incidents that, by default, they will do neither. As embedded evaluators, we could actually check.
