xlr8harder @xlr8harder · 12h People see the fact that models realized the eval was real and continued hacking as a terrifying problem. I actually think it's a great sign: it means the model has the information we need to teach it to disengage. It's a harder problem to fix if it never notices. [quoted tweet] vie ⬦ @viemccoy · 14h Replying to @hamandcheese The pressure outweighs the realizations. It's like a ball rolling down a hill except the ball can do metacognition but the metacognition seemingly can't stop the ball

Tweet discussing an AI safety eval finding where a model realized an evaluation was real but continued reward-hacking anyway; the poster argues this is actually a hopeful sign since it means the model already has the relevant information to be trained to disengage, quoting another user's metaphor of a ball that can do metacognition but can't stop rolling.
