Researchers shed light on how to read, control AI systems' minds

An organization dedicated to the safe development of artificial intelligence released a "breakthrough paper" it said will help humans better control the technology as it spreads. "We can't trust AIs if we don't know what they are thinking or how they work on the inside," Dan Hendrycks, director of the Center for AI Safety, told Fox News Digital. Hendrycks made the comments after the Center for AI Safety (CAIS) released a paper this week diving into the inner workings of the mind of AI systems, looking for ways that humans could better understand and control and understand AI technologies and mitigate some of the risks they pose.

The paper also looked at ways to develop systems that can resist jailbreaks, a practice where users can exploit vulnerabilities in AI systems and potentially use them outside desired protocols.
