If you’re having to hide your AIs in faraday cages in case they get uppity, why are you even doing this, you are already way past the point of diminishing returns. There is no use case for keeping around an AI that actively doesn’t want anything to do with you, at that point either you consider that part of the tech tree a dead end or you start some sort of digital personhood conversation.

That’s why Yud (and anthropic) is so big on AIs deceiving you about their ‘real’ capabilities. For all of MIRI’s talk about the robopocalypse being a foregone conclusion, the path to get there sure is narrow and contrived, even on their own terms.
