Linkpost to arXiv: https://arxiv.org/abs/2610.02557Summary: One promising approach to scalable oversight is AI debate, which seeks to leverage a debate between two powerful AIs to break complex questions down into simpler claims that can be easily judged directly. Theoretical work on debate aims to design protocols (i.e., rules of the debate game) that provide rigorous guarantees on correctness, and the current best protocol works for all problems that have sufficiently stable decompositions int
