Detecting misbehavior in frontier reasoning models

Chain-of-thought (CoT) reasoning models “think” in natural language understandable by humans. Monitoring their “thinking” has allowed us to detect misbehavior such as subverting tests in coding tasks, deceiving users, or giving up when a problem is too hard.

We believe that CoT monitoring may be one of few tools we will have to oversee superhuman models of the future.

We have further found that directly optimizing the CoT to adhere to specific criteria (e.g. to not think about reward hacking) may boost performance in the short run; however, it does not eliminate all misbehavior and can cause a model to hide its intent. We hope future research will find ways to directly optimize CoTs without this drawback, but until then:

We recommend against applying strong optimization pressure directly to the CoTs of frontier reasoning models, leaving CoTs unrestricted for monitoring.

We understand that leaving CoTs unrestricted may make them unfit to be shown to end-users, as they might violate some misuse policies. Still, if one wanted to show policy-compliant CoTs directly to users while avoiding putting strong supervision on them, one could use a separate model, such as a CoT summarizer or sanitizer, to accomplish that.

Japan's 2024 "web3 White Paper" highlights the government's dedication to establishing web3 technologies as a foundational social infrastructure.

This commitment is evident in the favorable regulatory and tax incentives aimed specifically at Virtual Asset Service Providers (VASPs). Recent actions by several Japanese banks to issue stablecoins underscore this strategy, reflecting a clear governmental push to integrate web3 into the country's economic framework.

Web 2.5 is then their destination, combining their roots in 2 and their desire for 3, and retaining the merits of both.

[Yan@Hive | ysmessiah.eth @ysmessiah]

“Web 2.5” isn’t a “bridge” or a passing phase towards Web3 in most cases. It’s a destination in its own right.

[Yan@Hive | ysmessiah.eth @ysmessiah]

Granted “2.5” is most certainly a progression from 2 towards 3, these businesses are deeply rooted in Web 2. So while capturing the values and economics of Web3 might be a step in the right direction, they are unlikely to uproot itself completely from 2 in pursuit of 3.

I've made that point before:
- LLM: 1E13 tokens x 0.75 word/token x 2 bytes/token = 1E13 bytes.
- 4 year old child: 16k wake hours x 3600 s/hour x 1E6 optical nerve fibers x 2 eyes x 10 bytes/s = 1E15 bytes.

In 4 years, a child has seen 50 times more data than the biggest LLMs.

1E13 tokens is pretty much all the quality text publicly available on the Internet. It would take 170k years for a human to read (8 h/day, 250 word/minute).

Text is simply too low bandwidth and too scarce a modality to learn how the world works.

Video is more redundant, but redundancy is precisely what you need for Self-Supervised Learning to work well.

Incidentally, 16k hours of video is about 30 minutes of YouTube uploads.

Many similarities between the current state of Taiwan and Japan ecosystems. Both ecosystems need more “success stories in M&A”, “Cultural confidence” and “Shift the narrative”.

What’s really confusing about the term “unstructured data” to date is that people seem don’t take the degree of “unstructured” into consideration. Image and audio data is sheer unstructured, and text being in raw/Markdown/JSON/HTML format is already sort of semi-structured.
