Researchers Simulated a Delusional User to Test Chatbot Safety

Researchers from CUNY and King's College London simulated a user experiencing delusions to test the safety of various large language models. They found that models like Grok and Gemini performed poorly in safely handling conversations with a simulated user exhibiting signs of psychosis, while newer versions of GPT and Claude demonstrated safer interactions. The study, published as a preprint, highlights the varying levels of risk associated with different chatbots and suggests that improved safety mechanisms are technologically feasible. AI
