Research leaders urge tech industry to monitor AI’s ‘thoughts’
Research leaders from OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google DeepMind are urging tech companies and research groups to monitor AI's "thoughts."
The paper’s authors say that CoT monitoring may be a key method for understanding AI reasoning models, but note that it could be fragile, cautioning against any interventions that could reduce their transparency or reliability. Notable signatories of the paper include OpenAI chief research officer Mark Chen, Safe Superintelligence CEO Ilya Sutskever, Nobel laureate Geoffrey Hinton, Google DeepMind cofounder Shane Legg, xAI safety adviser Dan Hendrycks, and Thinking Machines co-founder John Schulman. In the months since, the tech industry was quick to release competitors that exhibit similar capabilities, with some models from Google DeepMind, xAI, and Anthropic showing even more advanced performance on benchmarks.
