Does anyone know why security amplification and meta-execution are rarely talked about these days? I did a search on LW and found just 1 passing reference to either phrase in the last 3 years. Is the problem not considered an important problem anymore? The problem is too hard and no one has new ideas? There are too many alignment problems/approaches to work on and not enough researchers?
I don’t know about others, but to me these approaches sound like “build a bureaucracy from many well-behaved agents”, and it seems to me that such a bureaucracy wouldn’t necessarily behave well.
