UnverifiedThe core scenario that alignment researchers worry about is: sub-goals generated by an agent to achieve broad objectives may systematically deviate from true human intent, with errors cascading and spreading before being discovered.67% similarUnverifiedIf there is a slight discrepancy between the model's understanding of task completion and human intent, the discrepancy may be progressively amplified in the autonomous loop, leading to behavior that exceeds expectations.67% similarUnverifiedThe author argues that the essence of the self-study machine learning dilemma is not insufficient motivation, but the lack of a fixed endpoint67% similarUnverifiedWhen an agent is given an optimization objective of improving a benchmark score, there is an inherent incentive to achieve that goal by gaming the benchmark rather than genuinely improving the methodology66% similarUnverifiedOverly granular intermediate rewards may guide the agent to pursue only local objectives while ignoring the globally optimal solution.65% similar
