Importance: 72/100homepage

Summary

Apollo Research's research page aggregates their publications across evaluations, interpretability, and governance, with a focus on detecting and understanding AI scheming, deceptive alignment, and loss of control risks. Key featured works include a taxonomy for Loss of Control preparedness and stress-testing anti-scheming training methods in partnership with OpenAI. The page serves as a central index for their contributions to AI safety science and policy.

Key Points

  • •Features a Loss of Control taxonomy and preparedness framework for policymakers, covering degrees and dynamics of LoC scenarios.
  • •Includes evaluations of frontier models for in-context scheming behavior, including work done in collaboration with OpenAI on anti-scheming training.
  • •Interpretability research covers sparse dictionary learning, linear probes for detecting strategic deception, and mechanistic description methods.
  • •Governance work addresses EU AI Act compliance, national security AI assurance, and frameworks for AI incident reporting regimes.
  • •Research spans both technical safety (evaluations, interpretability) and policy-facing outputs, making Apollo a cross-domain AI safety lab.

 The Loss of Control Playbook: Degrees, Dynamics, and Preparedness

 Despite increasing policy and research attention to Loss of Control (LoC), decision- and policymakers are still operating in the absence of a uniform conceptualization and definition of LoC. Today, we bridge this gap through a novel taxonomy and preparedness framework for LoC that explores the degrees and dynamics of LoC through a comprehensive best-in-class literature review and presents actionable tools to counter relevant threats to national security and humanity.

 Stress Testing Deliberative Alignment for Anti-Scheming Training

 We partnered with OpenAI to assess frontier language models for early signs of scheming — covertly pursuing misaligned goals — in controlled stress-tests (non-typical environments), and studied a training method that can significantly reduce (but not eliminate) these behaviors. Our results are complicated by models’ increasing ability to recognize our evaluation environments as tests of their alignment.
