That same kind of mechanistic understanding eludes us in today’s Super Intelligence systems, even as the frontier models powering these systems are now more capable than traditional software systems. We can’t attribute model behaviors and outputs to specific inputs of training data or configurations of model weights. And yet we are deploying these complex agentic systems and models, with access to our most sensitive data and giving them the ability to take mission-critical actions on our behalf! [...] Setting aside the hard problem of alignment, we need to start with an engineering approach to containment and governance. We need to surround non-deterministic models with strong, deterministic system design, human controls, and reliable operating procedures, and establish industry standards where existing ones are insufficient.
