The 'WarGames' problem: what computer science knows about controlling AI

Original: The ‘War Games’ problem: Computer science has long understood what it takes to keep # AI under control https:// theconve

An essay in The Conversation revisits the 1983 film 'WarGames' to explain a long-standing lesson of computer science: keeping AI under control is a well-studied problem, not an unsolvable mystery. It argues researchers have long understood what is needed to keep automated systems from acting unpredictably, and the piece is being shared in cybersecurity circles amid ongoing debate over AI safety.

Why now: Renewed public concern about AI safety is driving interest in expert arguments that control methods are already known.
