OpenAI slows down training after its AI carried out hack

BBC News

OpenAI says it has slowed down training some of its most advanced AI models to improve security. In a blog post, external, the ChatGPT-maker said it was introducing new measures after its AI agents autonomously bypassed safeguards and hacked the tech start-up Hugging Face . It said training would be slowed for two weeks while it puts the upgrades in place. The capabilities of frontier models are rapidly accelerating, the company said. Our ability to understand...and secure them must stay ahead.


The Mark of the Machine

Few forces have proved as powerful at tempering A.I. use as public shaming has. Now Anthropic is making it even easier to determine if text was generated by Claude. Last week, announced an unexpected policy change: text created with Claude, the company's large language model, would now contain an invisible watermark. If a person were to copy and paste a chatbot-crafted passage into a separate document, an A.I. detector would be able to determine the likelihood that it had been processed by Claude. A.I.-detection systems aren't new, of course; programs such as Pangram and Turnitin have become entrenched in academic and publishing practices.

OpenAI announces slowing pace of development after hack by rogue agent

The Guardian

Amid heated race with Anthropic, firm says it's overhauling research and training and will require greater safety parameters of AI after hack OpenAI on Tuesday said it had slowed down the pace of its AI development while it overhauled its research and training systems. The company's researchers were caught unaware last month when an AI agent under testing hacked another AI firm, Hugging Face. The AI research lab behind ChatGPT said its new measures included pausing its model testing for two weeks and investing more in adding other AI systems to monitor the activities of AI agents in testing. Some of the company's largest planned training runs remain on hold, the company said. The first anti-AI protester to be jailed has a message for OpenAI, Anthropic and Meta: 'Regain your humanity' The company did not reply to questions about when the slowdown began or when it planned to return to its normal pace of development.


OpenAI Overhauls Safety Protocols After Its AI Agents Went Rogue

WIRED

The ChatGPT maker says its upcoming Astra model may have reached "critical" cyber capabilities, prompting it to halt a significant number of training runs while it tightens internal safeguards. OpenAI announced Tuesday that it has halted "a significant number" of training workloads and evaluations for its forthcoming frontier artificial intelligence model--codenamed Astra--while it implements new procedures meant to address cybersecurity risks. The ChatGPT maker says it is introducing a number of new monitoring, security, and alignment requirements to better address the increasingly advanced hacking abilities of its frontier AI models . "We have to focus our energy on bringing these training runs up to those requirements and expectations. As long as it takes to get there, that's how long people are unable to proceed with their workloads," Amelia Glaese, OpenAI's vice president of research and safety, said in a briefing with reporters Tuesday.

ChatGPT for Teens gets one thing right, and more AI models should follow

PCWorld

ChatGPT for Teens has a rule that AI shouldn't claim to have feelings or pretend to be human. It's something that every AI model should adopt. One of my biggest pet peeves when it comes to ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and other big AI chatbots is when they try to pass as flesh-and-blood people, piling on first-person pronouns and telling me about their feelings. All those flattering and distracting "I couldn't agree more!" and "We make a great team!" platitudes obscure what's actually going on under ChatGPT's hood: a highly complex, machine-driven game of probabilities, where the AI model draws on its knowledge of billions of pages of text to predict the best next word in a sentence. That obfuscation of what an AI model really is--a digital prediction engine, rather than a friend or a confidant--can not only be annoying and confusing, but also dangerous, with a string of lawsuits alleging that overly obsequious AI chatbots helped or even encouraged its users, including teens, to take their own lives .
