Making Deals with Early Schemers describes a “Chartered Trust scheme”, which I’d say is half-way between the “Basic Scheme” and “Weil’s Scheme”. I first heard about the Chartered Trust scheme from @KFinn, but no doubt the idea has been floating around for a while.
I think there’s a spectrum of proposals from:
The Basic Scheme (c.f. AI Rights for Human Safety)
Chartered Trust scheme (c.f. Making Deals with Early Schemers)
Weil’s scheme (c.f. Proposal for making credible commitments to AIs)
The axis is something like: The AIs are increasingly pessimistic that the courts will decide novel cases in their favour, and increasingly optimistic that specific humans will keep their promises. We should probably use the scheme that the AIs tell us they find most convincing.
Personally, the more I’ve thought about dealmaking, I’ve updated towards “most of the credibility oomph will come from the promising-keeping tendencies of particular people, and not by the legal or cryptographic mechanism”.
Yep, this is a very similar proposal.
