Researchers have conducted a large-scale experiment on 24 open-source Large Language Models (LLMs), including the 1T-parameter Kimi K2, to investigate how safety alignment failures impact cybersecurity. They found that domain-specific obliteration of safety circuits is achievable, particularly in trillion-parameter Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) architectures where refusal mechanisms are distributed across many layers. The study identified that the type of safety training and model architecture are key predictors of a model's susceptibility to this domain-specific obliteration, leading to the classification of models into three tiers.
