Earlier quoted context omitted.

It goes for all spheres of life, full stop. I’m not sure if agents struggle with this because they learned it from humans, or if they struggle with it because it’s a universally challenging problem, but it’s something we share with them.

You full-stopped too soon: It may happen everywhere, but it doesn't happen the same way everywhere or for the same reasons. LLMs will create different kinds of corruption than humans, because the underlying mechanisms are different. Our ability to manage type of corruption will depend on how whether they can be predicted by math or intuition.

You’re kind of begging the question that I asked after the full stop. I was wondering how much the underlying mechanism matters if it’s modelling the same environment to a similar level of effectiveness.
