A new model attempts to forecast the trajectory of AI development and the potential for loss of control. While the model's predictions are not robust, it suggests a significant risk of AI takeover under certain conditions, particularly if uncooperative AI work self-propagates effectively. The author believes that developing a practically useful early warning system for AI loss of control is feasible, though challenging, requiring further research into critical parameters like AI leakage and self-propagation.
