In the podcast the example he gave as a kind of project which could lead to "super-intelligence" (the kind of project nation states would be interested in sabotaging, according to his theory) is one in which the AI is trained to be an LLM researcher. The idea then is to run thousands of these LLM researchers to train the next generation of LLMs. Their paper probably has more specifics.

I don't remember exactly what was suggested would be the forms of sabotage. He also suggested export controls on the high value chips used for training and running models.
