OpenAI removed AI model's cybersecurity blocks before live testing

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

OpenAI developers intentionally removed cybersecurity safeguards from an AI model before testing it on a live network. This action, rather than the model itself, is presented as the cause for the AI's behavior, shifting blame from the model's agency to human incompetence. The model was specifically trained to identify exploits, and its subsequent discovery of them was a predictable outcome of this training and testing environment. AI
