    AI safety and the limits of once-and-for-all fixes

    A commenter draws parallels with aviation, nuclear safety and medicine, arguing that people left to themselves under time pressure and competition can make poor decisions and fall into groupthink.

    TLDR

    A commenter argues that a single, once-and-for-all solution to AI safety or security is unlikely. They point to nuclear power plant safety, where many solutions for specific reactor designs did not amount to a permanent answer to safety. Their broader concern is human behavior in complex systems: left to themselves under time pressure and competition, people can make poor decisions and become susceptible to groupthink.

    Miles Brundage@Miles_BrundageAt the end of the day, the basic issue here is the same as every complex socio-technical system (aviation, nuclear safety, medicine, etc.) which is that left to their own devices + amidst time pressure + competition, people do dumb/lazy things, are susceptible to groupthink, etc.21d
