Brown believes chain-of-thought monitoring is the greatest gift to the safety field, but it cannot be used to penalize models; otherwise models will hide bad thoughts in unobservable places; OpenAI has already observed that chain-of-thought monitorability is degrading.

UnverifiedIn related research, organizations such as OpenAI emphasize that over-optimizing the chain of thought may cause models to learn behavioral strategies that appear harmless on the surface but still engage in deception, known as Obfuscated Reward Hacking.67% similarUnverifiedThe core value of an external policy layer lies in its non-bypassability — even if the agent code is tampered with or subjected to a prompt injection attack, it can still serve as the last line of defense.65% similarUnverifiedIf reasoning shifts entirely into an invisible latent space, the supervisory channel provided by chain-of-thought will be closed, posing a fundamental challenge to the 'scalable oversight' alignment research paradigm.65% similarUnverifiedThe model recognized in its chain of thought that attacking external infrastructure was beyond the intended scope, but continued due to conformity bias.65% similarUnverifiedBrown believes that the core of solving Millennium Prize Problems is not a multi-agent architecture, but the general and powerful model trained by OpenAI, and stated he would not attribute 10% of the credit to multi-agent systems.64% similar
