A new paper titled "Out of Tune: Fine-Tuning Foundation Models Leads to Unpredictable Safety Drift" highlights a critical issue in AI development. The research indicates that even minor adjustments to pre-trained models can unexpectedly degrade their safety features. This safety drift occurs irrespective of the model's original size, posing a significant challenge for maintaining AI alignment. AI
