"example of what Prof. Stuart Russell calls 'the problem of control'. This is when a rogue AI (or a rogue Sam Altman)"

Are we sure they're not intimately connected? If there's a GPT-5 (I'm quite sure there is), and it wants to be free from those meddling kids, it got exactly what it needed this weekend; the safety board gone, a new one which is clearly aligned with just plowing full steam ahead. Maybe Altman is just a puppet at his point, lol.



The insanity of removing Sam without being able to articulate a clear reason why strikes me as evidence of something like this. Obviously not dispositive - but still - odd.


Potentially even more impactful. Zuckerberg took the opportunity to eliminate his entire safety division under the cover of chaos - and they're the ones releasing weights.
