Wargaming AGI development
LessWrong, March 19, 2022
Abstract
Wargaming can be useful for exploring scenarios in AGI development. A wargame of this kind could help to answer questions about timelines, takeoff scenarios, risk mitigation, and other variables that affect AGI development. Simulating the future development of AGI will allow researchers to explore concrete situations including capabilities that do not exist yet, against which they can compare their models of the future. Exploring future AGI in a controlled scenario will allow for end-to-end testing of hypotheses and improved prediction accuracy. – AI-generated abstract.
