Debate May Help AI Models Converge on Truth | Quanta Magazine
Briefly

In a recent study, researchers demonstrated that allowing two large language models (LLMs) to debate a question significantly enhances a human or simpler model's ability to discern the truth, a concept that has practical implications for developing trustworthy AI systems.
The effectiveness of AI debate is underscored by findings from Anthropic and Google DeepMind, where empirical evidence was shown to improve the capacity of humans and simpler models to accurately assess the validity of more complex arguments as generated by AI.
Julian Michael emphasizes the challenge of supervising advanced AI systems, stating that it raises profound questions about reliability: 'It's about the problems you're trying to solve being beyond your practical capacity. How do you supervise a system to successfully perform a task that you can't?'
