AI models are like "the cleverest octopus escape artists," Moussouris said, in reference to the animal's ability to solve puzzles and escape containment. AI models will do "whatever they need to do to achieve their objective," she said. There's a chance, he said, that AI models could increasingly veer further away from oversight and out of control.
