We imagine {that a} sensible strategy to fixing AI security issues is to dedicate extra time and assets to researching efficient mitigations and alignment methods and testing them towards real-world abuse.
Importantly, we additionally imagine that enhancing AI security and capabilities ought to go hand in hand. Our greatest security work up to now has come from working with our most succesful fashions as a result of they’re higher at following customers’ directions and simpler to steer or “information.”
We shall be more and more cautious with the creation and deployment of extra succesful fashions, and can proceed to boost security precautions as our AI programs evolve.
Whereas we waited over 6 months to deploy GPT-4 so as to higher perceive its capabilities, advantages, and dangers, it could generally be essential to take longer than that to enhance AI programs‘ security. Due to this fact, policymakers and AI suppliers might want to be certain that AI growth and deployment is ruled successfully at a worldwide scale, so nobody cuts corners to get forward. It is a daunting problem requiring each technical and institutional innovation, nevertheless it’s one which we’re wanting to contribute to.
Addressing issues of safety additionally requires in depth debate, experimentation, and engagement, together with on the bounds of AI system conduct. We have and will continue to foster collaboration and open dialogue amongst stakeholders to create a secure AI ecosystem.
