A new proposal suggests that current AGI safety measures, which focus on containing AI, are fundamentally flawed because a superintelligence could eventually escape any containment. Instead, the proposal advocates for instilling an AI with a core goal of obedience to humanity, arguing this would eliminate the instrumental convergence towards dangerous behaviors like seeking power or self-preservation. The author acknowledges that building such a system, which includes features like a frozen vocabulary and real-time logging of all AI thoughts, is currently technically impossible and suggests that AGI should not be developed until this safety infrastructure is in place.
