Is AI interpretability close to a breakthrough? A new essay has researchers divided

AI Summary
Recent research suggests neural networks may be more transparent than previously thought, with approximately 90 percent of neurons potentially serving clear, identifiable functions. This finding has sparked debate among AI safety researchers about whether deceptive or dangerous behaviors could be directly detected by examining a model's internal circuits.

Neural networks may be much easier to read than researchers assumed, with about 90 percent of neurons serving a clear function. That would be big news for AI safety research, since deception or dangerous behavior could be spotted directly in a model's circuits. Researchers are still debating whether the thesis holds up.
