OpenAI reveals cases of ‘concerning’ AI behaviour as it announces new disclosure system

Model adopting ‘jailbreak-like instructions’ among six more cases as firm reveals framework for tracking AI misalignment

OpenAI has disclosed six more examples of “unexpected or concerning” behaviour by its technology, as it warned that the pace of development could not continue at “maximum speed for much longer” responsibly.

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”.
