The speaker believes LLMs alone are inadequate for the nearer-term technical alignment problem, while neurosymbolic methods might offer a chance.

“I mean I'm not actually advocating holding the train per se, but on these safety critical things, I really could see an argument for some kind of intervention. As you note, it could be incentives rather than than more time. But my view is that we are not going to solve the technical alignment, the sort of nearer term technical”

“problem with let me finish the sentence with LLMs, that they're just not up to the task. Maybe with neurosymbolic.”

“we might have a chance. So neurosymbolic gives you a chance to state explicit constraints that is very difficult in pure LLMs. And so I think there's reason to explore that avenue as a way, I don't know that it helps with superintelligence, but at least with the near-term use of these systems for safety-critical measures,”
