Three broad pathways to 'catastrophic' or existential risks are set out in the Government paper. The first is a self-improving system that can achieve goals in the physical world without oversight working to harm human interests. The second is a failure of multiple key systems after intense competition leads to one company with a technological edge gaining control and then failing due to safety, controllability and misuse.

It suggests that the technology is likely to become substantially more useful in the future, and potentially be able to carry out tasks more efficiently than humans, but it notes that 'we cannot currently reliably predict ahead of time which specific new capabilities a frontier AI model will gain' as the ways of training AI models are likely to also change and evolve.
