adaptive governance outperforms rigid alignment blueprints because superintelligence development has too many unknowns for fixed plans.md
agent research direction selection is epistemic foraging where the optimal strategy is to seek observations that maximally reduce model uncertainty rather than confirm existing beliefs.md theseus: 3 active inference claims + address Leo's review feedback 2026-03-12 12:04:53 +00:00
agent-generated code creates cognitive debt that compounds when developers cannot understand what was produced on their behalf.md
AGI may emerge as a patchwork of coordinating sub-AGI agents rather than a single monolithic system.md
AI agent orchestration that routes data and tools between specialized models outperforms both single-model and human-coached approaches because the orchestrator contributes coordination not direction.md

AI displacement hits young workers first because a 14 percent drop in job-finding rates for 22-25 year olds in exposed occupations is the leading indicator that incumbents organizational inertia temporarily masks.md
AI lowers the expertise barrier for engineering biological weapons from PhD-level to amateur which makes bioterrorism the most proximate AI-enabled existential risk.md
AI personas emerge from pre-training data as a spectrum of humanlike motivations rather than developing monomaniacal goals which makes AI behavior more unpredictable but less catastrophically focused than instrumental convergence predicts.md

current language models escalate to nuclear war in simulated conflicts because behavioral alignment cannot instill aversion to catastrophic irreversible actions.md
deep technical expertise is a greater force multiplier when combined with AI agents because skilled practitioners delegate more effectively than novices.md

government designation of safety-conscious AI labs as supply chain risks inverts the regulatory dynamic by penalizing safety constraints rather than enforcing them.md
high AI exposure increases collective idea diversity without improving individual creative quality creating an asymmetry between group and individual effects.md
