Jeremy Howard 指出减缓 AI 自我改进的矛盾:顶级实验室应放弃使用自身最强模型
Quoting Jeremy Howard
Jeremy Howard 在推特上提出一个逻辑悖论式方案:若真想减缓递归式 AI 自我改进,拥有排名第一模型的实验室(目前是 Anthropic)必须同意自己不使用该模型进行前沿 AI 研究,同时允许其他人访问,这样前沿不会推进且可避免权力失衡。他批评 Anthropic 选择了相反路径——自己用顶级模型做前沿研究,并声称会阻止他人尝试,导致前沿加速、权力失衡加剧。Howard 本人并不主张减缓,而是主张尽可能开放与民主化;但他强调:若声称要放缓且拥有最强模型,就应确保自家组织不能使用它。

Easy solution to slow down recursive AI self improvement:
- The lab with the top-ranked model must agree THEY must not use it for working on frontier AI
- But everyone else should have access to it.
By definition, this means the frontier doesn't advance.
It also has the critical benefit of avoiding a dangerous power imbalance.
Anthropic has chosen the opposite of the safe path: they are allowing themselves, the current top lab, to use their top model for frontier AI research. They've said they'll sabotage others who try.
This means the AI frontier advances, & power imbalance increases.
(To be clear, I don't think we should try to slow down recursive AI self improvement - I think we should open it up and democratize it as much as possible. My point is: if you claim we should slow down, and you have the best model, you should ensure your org can't use it.)
