We have a very natural instinct to say: we want as much interpretability as possible. One of the sci-fi worry cases is that agents start speaking in languages to each other that we don't understand. [...] I bet there are ways to define boundaries that are safe.

Source URL on every.to returns HTTP 403 to WebFetch. Web search confirms Reid Hoffman discusses the "sci-fi worry case" of agents speaking languages we don't understand in the context of the Every podcast "Reid Hoffman Makes Five Predictions About AI In 2026." Vote "abstain" on requiring interpretability above a capability threshold is consistent with Hoffman's nuanced framing: he acknowledges the natural instinct to want maximal interpretability and the worry case, but qualifies with "I bet there are ways to define boundaries that are safe" — suggesting he doesn't fully commit to mandatory interpretability requirements. Marking ai_unverifiable since the primary source itself can't be retrieved to confirm exact wording.
