habryka comments on DeepMind’s “​​Frontier Safety Framework” is weak and unambitious

[habryka]

The document doesn’t specify whether “deployment” includes internal deployment. (This is important because maybe lots of risk comes from the lab using AIs internally to do AI development.)

This seems like such an obvious and crucial distinction that I felt very surprised when the framework didn’t disambiguate between the two.

Yep

Two weeks ago I sent a senior DeepMind staff member some “Advice on RSPs, especially for avoiding ambiguities”; #1 on my list was “Clarify how your deployment commitments relate to internal deployment, not just external deployment” (since it’s easy and the OpenAI PF also did a bad job of this)

:(

Edit: Rohin says “deployment” means external deployment by default and notes that the doc mentions “internal access” as distinct from deployment.
