AI safety discourse overlooks "quiet failures" in everyday workflows, new preprint argues

A new preprint suggests that the primary danger of AI safety failures lies not in dramatic, headline-grabbing incidents, but in the subtle, unmeasured "quiet failures" that become normalized within everyday workflows. This perspective challenges the common focus on catastrophic risks, arguing that the pervasive, low-level malfunctions pose a more insidious threat to AI systems and their users. AI

IMPACT Highlights a potential blind spot in AI safety research, suggesting a shift in focus towards subtle, normalized failures.
