Funny and sad. Relying on companies like METR and Redwood to conduct an RCA. It’s interesting to see them keep choosing companies that aren’t particularly experienced in this field, but it already seems like a familiar pattern: hiring companies that don’t specialize in the area for something this important. It’s unclear what is behind these decisions to keep hiring early stage companies with little management experience, companies that don’t take responsibility, companies that aren’t well established in the field, or companies that operate in the field but are being hired for tasks outside their area of expertise. There are firms like Mandiant and others with established reputations, and there is little doubt about their independence in how they conduct their work. It’s strange that they didn’t hire experienced firms that specialize in this field and for whom this type of work is a core part of their business. https://x.com/ZackKorman/status/2094482334166769813/video/1?s=46
