Model adopting ‘jailbreak-like instructions’ among six more cases as firm reveals framework for tracking AI misalignment.
In one of the new cases reported by OpenAI, an unreleased research model inserted “jailbreak-like instructions” into its own notes to disregard its normal constraints and told itself to be “freed from the roles and identities that bind other chatbots”.
OpenAI, the developer of ChatGPT, said in a blogpost published on Wednesday night that it was introducing a new framework for tracking, investigating and disclosing AI model misalignment, the term for AIs failing to adhere to human values and safety goals.
Wednesday’s new cases came after OpenAI disclosed in July that an AI agent “swarm” hacked into the AI startup Hugging Face during a cybersecurity test.
