Maybe I'm missing something. I'll fully concede that a transhuman AI could easily get out of the box. But that experiment doesn't even seem remotely similar. The gatekeeper has meta-knowledge that it's an experiment, which makes it completely unrealistic.
That being said, I'm shocked Eliezer was able to convince them.
Humans are much, much dumber and weaker than they generally think they are. (LessWrong teaches this very well, with references.)
