  Confirms the podcast's reading against the published essay itself rather than the transcription. Near-verbatim, prefaced in the essay by "Currently I believe that", so it is correctly characterised as a stated belief. Recorded here because claim 1d9b1770 was merged into this one.

• Pachocki says no lab has solved alignment and monitoring sufficiently to keep scaling at maximum speed much longer.

Inferences

Concluded from

None.

Used as a premise in

None.

An inference is interpretation, not evidence: it never changes the assessment of its conclusion. Each premise is a claim with its own evidence.

Threads

None. Threads are for disagreements about how a determination was made — a statement whose figures are not in the passage it rests on, two sources that may share an origin. Something about the world belongs in the evidence above.

Claim edges

None. Edges are stored and displayed; v0.1 does not propagate probability across them.
