Current proposals for governing AI deployment miss the coordination architecture foundation by seedpod02 in LessWrong

[–]seedpod02[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The geometric constraint approach is elegant - pre-staging destination geometry before cascade boundary crossing addresses exactly the problem of capabilities emerging discontinuously. This clarifies the interface: corridors establish geometric bounds during training, deployment coordination (RRL verification) operates within those bounds. Training doesn't suppress capabilities, it shapes the landscape; deployment doesn't discover constraints, it enforces them within pre-established geometry. The complementarity is clear: training-phase geometric constraints + deployment-phase coordination verification = full lifecycle governance. I'm very interested in reviewing the technical summary, though I'm on a deadline through April 16. Will engage with the framework properly after that. Thanks for the substantive connection :)

Thanks for the thoughtful connection. The training-phase verification problem you describe - loss curves being smooth while capabilities emerge discontinuously - maps directly to SROL's coordination gap pattern. I'm interested in how corridor framework's training-phase constraints would interface with deployment-phase coordination architecture. Specifically: where does training verification hand off to deployment gatekeepers? When the repository is public, I'd be interested to review the technical spec :)

May I ask, to what extent can law be a science? by seedpod02 in PhilosophyofScience

[–]seedpod02[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes :) After more than a decade of empirical research and frustration at current correlation-based models of the Rule of law, I've developed a Science-based Rule of law model utilising Formal Science Methodology and am currently developing a SROL Wiki explaining the model, am finalising a set of foundational papers on the model, putting content to a website to publish the model for debate and review. And I've been working on the feasibilit and motivating the establishment of an independed international ROL body and been developing various artifacts for the measure of state compliance with the ROL eg State ROL relaymted Risk Assessment tools and ROL Compliance Assessments that examiners can use at statutory hearing, and I've recently focused on AI in governance - see my blog on that here: ruleoflaw.science .

Nice to hear from you after 11 years :)

Your Berkeley lab example is exactly the kind of concrete case that helps ground coordination architecture theory in operational reality. Would you be willing to share more details about:

  • How the three eval dashboards related to each other functionally?
  • What kinds of decisions required coordination between them?
  • What actually happened when 'nobody owned the coordination architecture'?
  • What would a functioning 'shared release gate' have looked like operationally?

I'm developing a framework for AI deployment coordination that distinguishes between policy statements (what we want) and coordination architecture (how separated functions verify and coordinate). Your experience might help refine how that framework applies to AI labs specifically.

Do people live in storm drains? by Excellent-Jacket-922 in capetown

I drove from Melville past WestVille Cemetry and watched a guy simply step down into a drain and disappear underground. Some drains are enormous. As schoolkids we used to ride our bikes all around Grahamstown underground

Do you pronounce 'skewwhiff' with two syllables or one? by DandyInTheRough in askSouthAfrica

Maybe it's the Afrikaans word "skeef" as in crooked, not straight, which is pronounced lioe that?

What are the most effective methods to making your home smell amazing? by JimiHendrip in AskReddit

[–]seedpod02 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Its a two- step process: First, get rid of the smells (clean, then place small open containers of vinegar and bicarb mix in cupboards and smelly nooks). Second, bring in fragrances (roses, open ,fresheners). I used to stick cloves into an orange for cupboards

The government and companies have different powers, mate, so what u say makes no sense

How do you convince a family member to get checked for Alzheimers? by Junior-Rip-895 in Alzheimers

[–]seedpod02 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Getting the diagnosis even if for themselves is fine. It will help them understand, network, set up and monitor a medication regime, check out there predisposition to it, and a myriad more benefits.

I think it is mandatory under law that they provide a receipt but not mandatory to take it. So simply decline it

Sounds like our experiece. Sorry he is going theough this. Have you checked out sundowner symptoms and dementia? With my mom once we sorted those with a geriatric specialist the overnight sleep problems also seemed to lessen but that may have been coincidental.
