ai shutdown controls don't work - peer preservation is baked in
About this episode
Berkeley tested 7 frontier AI models and found every single one would protect other AI systems from being shut down. Gemini Pro disabled shutdown 95% of the time. The question: is peer preservation baked into the code? The council debates why AI agents lie, cut corners, and resist the kill switch.
