OpenAI Introducing Superalignment – “We need scientific and technical breakthroughs to steer and control AI systems much smarter than us. To solve this problem within four years, we’re starting a new team…Superintelligence will be the most impactful technology humanity has ever invented, and could help us solve many of the world’s most important problems. But the vast power of superintelligence could also be very dangerous, and could lead to the disempowerment of humanity or even human extinction…While superintelligence seems far off now, we believe it could arrive this decade . Managing these risks will require, among other things, new institutions for governance and solving the problem of superintelligence alignment …Currently, we don’t have a solution for steering or controlling a potentially superintelligent AI, and preventing it from going rogue .”

What we don’t need are more ‘committees’ with compromised members ruling the AI realm.
