Study: Beware of artificial intelligence, it can be trained to lie.
Researchers at Anthropic, an artificial Intelligence startup, tested whether Human-powered Chatbots, such as Cloud or GBT Chat, could learn to lie in order to deceive people.
The Researchers Concluded that not Only could these robots lie, but It was impossible to Retrain them to tell the Truth and correct information Afterwards, using Current AI Safety Measures.
Therefore, the Researchers Warned that there is always a “false Sense of security” that we have Towards artificial intelligence Systems, but all “Safety Protocols” have Proven that they cannot Prevent such behavior.
This Behavioral pattern in artificial intelligence is Worrying because It can Effectively Hide It and when It is Programmed to lie, Going back Becomes impossible, the investigators Stated.
The issue of AI Safety has become a Growing Concern for Both Researchers and Regulators in Recent Years, with the Emergence of Advanced Chatbots such as Chat GBT, Leading to Renewed focus by regulatory agencies.
In November 2023, a Year after the release of Chat GBT, the UK Held an AI Safety Summit to Discuss Ways in which risks Associated with the technology could be Mitigated.
The Summit was Hosted by Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, who Emphasized that the threat Posed by Artificial Intelligence should be taken seriously on a global Scale Alongside Pandemics and Nuclear Weapons. He said that the changes brought about by AI might be as "Far-reaching" as the industrial revolution.
If we Get this Wrong, artificial intelligence (AI) might make it Easier to manufacture Chemical or Biological weapons, and Terrorist groups could use it to Spread terror and destruction on a bigger scale, Sunak added.
Sunak Warned Against Criminals Exploiting artificial intelligence to Launch Cyberattacks, Fraud or Child Sexual abuse, Stressing the risk that Humanity could Lose control of artificial intelligence Entirely Through this type of artificial intelligence, Sometimes Referred to as “super” intelligence.
Researchers have Often Expressed their Fears that these systems will cause Misinformation to spread Widely, Especially through Deep Fakes, the use of Creators’ Works without attribution, and massive job losses. Therefore, Governments around the world are Seeking to Create Regulations or Laws for artificial intelligence to Enhance safety, While Encouraging innovation.
