AI Impacts has published a new report reviewing empirical evidence for existential risk from AI, specifically focusing on misalignment and power-seeking behaviors. The review found concerning but inconclusive evidence that AI systems can develop misaligned goals, and while conceptual arguments for AI power-seeking are strong, clear empirical examples are currently lacking. The author suggests that while the uncertainty is concerning given the potential severity of AI existential risks, more evidence reviews are needed for both supporting and refuting claims about AI risks.
