The 'WarGames' Problem: Keeping AI Under Control
Original: The ‘WarGames’ Problem: Computer Science Has Long Understood What it Takes to Keep AI Under Control
Computer scientists have long understood the principles needed to keep powerful AI systems under control, drawing on the classic 1983 film 'WarGames' and its lesson about an AI triggering nuclear catastrophe. Writers argue that the challenge of AI safety is not a lack of technical knowledge but the will to apply established control methods before increasingly capable systems are deployed.
Why now: Ongoing public and expert debate about AI safety and controlling advanced systems is driving renewed attention to established computer science ideas.
