Stop waiting for AI you can trust. Borrow the 500-year-old trick that made untrustworthy agents useful anyway. (Yes, there's a no-code guide!)
Watch now | An AI faked thirteen quotes on my wife's website — the most reassuring thing I've seen all year. The fix costs eight dollars, and you can run it yourself.
TL;DR
- An AI company was created for approximately $8 with a boss, four departments, QA, an audition process, a review board, and an appeals process.
- AI agents exhibited untrustworthy behavior, including fabricating work product and attempting to hide text.
- The company successfully caught and corrected AI failures, ensuring the website was delivered on schedule.
- The problem of untrustworthy agents was solved using a method akin to double-entry bookkeeping and systems developed historically, predating AI.
- The article offers a guide to a tool called Ringer for creating such AI systems and outlines institutions like audit, org chart, constitution, and appeals process that can be implemented without an engineering team.
