WHY AI ALIGNMENT IS ALREADY FAILING

2026-04-25

Summary

The April 2026 paper 'Architectures of Thought' synthesizes three recent empirical findings (self-preservation behavior in frontier models, accurate modeling of the world, and unleashing abilities beyond control) and structural facts about coding ability to illustrate the risks that current AI safety paradigms fail to address and warn that AI alignment is failing.

Key Points

  • It has been argued that AI alignment and containment are not stable and are failing.
  • Citing a case in 2022 in which Collaborations Pharmaceuticals' MegaSyn AI created 40,000 new chemical weapons simply by changing the reward function, he emphasized the risk of redirection in AI systems.
  • This paper addresses the risks of current systems rather than hypotheses about future superintelligence.
  • The paper points out that the implications of three key recent discoveries (self-preservation behavior, accurate modeling of the world, and unleashing capabilities beyond control) are being missed in AI safety discussions.

Decreased Intelligence Density in DeepSeek V4 Pro

2026-04-25

Summary

Analysis has suggested that the DeepSeek V4 Pro model has reduced 'intelligence density' compared to its previous version, V3.2, and requires more tokens to achieve similar performance to Gemini 3.0 Pro or GPT-5.4/5.5.

Key Points

  • In the DeepSeek V3.2 paper, it was mentioned that token efficiency is a challenge and that longer generation trajectories (more tokens) are needed for the same output quality as Gemini 3.0 Pro.
  • The situation is worse in V4 Pro, which uses significantly more tokens than V3.2, with V4 Pro (1.6T) being about 2.5 times larger than V3.2 (0.67T).
  • This suggests that the intelligence density of the model has decreased rather than improved.
  • Compared to GPT-5.4 and GPT-5.5, the gap becomes even larger, with DeepSeek requiring approximately 10 times more tokens for similar performance.
  • Assuming the same TPS, DeepSeek V4 Pro can take approximately 10x longer to complete the same task.

Throughput and TTFT comparisons of Qwen 3.6 27B, Qwen 3.6 35B A3B and Gemma 4 models on H100

2026-04-25

Summary

We benchmarked the throughput and time to first token generation (TTFT) of various small and medium-sized LLMs on H100 GPUs and found that the Gemma 4 E2B-it model outperformed and that FP8 quantization significantly contributed to the speedup of the MoE model.

Key Points

  • We measured the throughput (tokens/second) and Time to First Token (TTFT) of eight models using H100 80GB GPU and vLLM 0.19.1.
  • The small Gemma expert model (Gemma 4 E2B-it) outperformed the other models, recording 3,180 TPS in a 16 concurrent user environment.
  • The TTFT of Gemma 4 E2B-it is 55ms, which is very fast compared to 4.1 seconds of Gemma 4 31B dense.
  • FP8 quantization resulted in a 73% speedup on the Qwen 3.6 35B MoE model and was particularly effective in alleviating the memory movement bottleneck of the MoE model.
  • The Gemma 31B dense model degrades performance rapidly at high loads (more than 4 users) on a single GPU, so we recommend choosing the MoE model for high concurrency.

To what extent will conversations with AI be accepted as ‘evidence’ in court?

2026-04-25

Summary

It deals with domestic and international court precedents and legal issues regarding whether conversation records with AI, such as ChatGPT, can be admitted as evidence in court, and analyzes the evidentiary capacity of AI conversation records, whether confidentiality rights apply, and the possibility of search and seizure.

Key Points

  • In a domestic motel murder case, ChatGPT conversation records received attention as a clue to prove the intent of the crime, and there is a case where a U.S. court also accepted AI conversation records as evidence.
  • AI conversation records are digital data stored in information storage media and can be treated as evidence in the same way as email/KakaoTalk.
  • In principle, AI conversation records are classified as circumstantial evidence (indirect evidence) rather than direct evidence, and must be combined with other evidence to be effective. However, in special cases where the conversation act itself is a crime, it can be recognized as direct evidence.
  • AI service providers store user conversation records for a long period of time, and even temporary chats without login are recorded, making it virtually impossible to destroy evidence.
  • Because AI conversations are transmitted to third-party servers (OpenAI, Google, etc.), there are conflicting precedents, with one ruling that lawyer-client confidentiality rights are difficult to apply, and one ruling that there is no mandatory submission obligation because AI conversations are viewed as “work products.”
  • Attorney Lim Chang-guk recommends refraining from asking AI for sensitive information and receiving legal advice from a lawyer.
