Can our data center expertise help with AI verification?

(Also posted on EA Forum .) Treaties to pause training or otherwise restrict dangerous uses of AI would require difficult verification schemes. Plan A's proposal is that network taps inside data centers would record copies of traffic (or hashes of it), and later recomputations on random samples could check whether sampled outputs match declared workloads, as part of a broader verification scheme. I'm an AI engineer at a company building tools for the construction industry. Much of our work is with data centers. The architects, engineers and construction managers on our team work every week wit

How well do agents use test and verification techniques?

We previously noted that, while it's easier than ever to hit a particular quality bar by having coding agents use effective test techniques, software quality seems to be getting worse , indicating that whatever defaults developers are using may not work very well. Here, we test if simple instructions to agents to use particular techniques or libraries improve implementation correctness, as a kind of test to see how effective agents are when guided by someone with no expertise in testing who's maybe heard that you should apply certain techniques or use certain libraries. We'll re-use the Zstd i
