Disinformation detection approaches, such as watermarking, discussed above, have been 
proposed and trialed but still face challenges in effectively detecting false content.246 Whilst 
improving media literacy is crucial, it is hard given that the quality of outputs from frontier AI is 
in many cases indistinguishable even to experts. This is a trend expected to increase with 
model size – in the GPT-3 paper, authors experiments found humans were better at 
distinguishing AI generated text for smaller models, but for larger models they could only tell 
the difference about 52% of the time, barely above random chance.247 

Loss of control 

Humans may increasingly hand over control of important decisions to AI systems, due 
to economic and geopolitical incentives. Some experts are concerned that future 
advanced AI systems will seek to increase their own influence and reduce human 
control, with potentially catastrophic consequences - although this is contested.
