White House officials concerned about AI chatbots' potential for societal harm and the Silicon Valley powerhouses rushing them to market are heavily invested in a three-day competition ending Sunday at the DefCon hacker convention in Las Vegas.
Current AI models are simply too unwieldy, brittle and malleable, academic and corporate research shows. Security was an afterthought in their training as data scientists amassed breathtakingly complex collections of images and text. They are prone to racial and cultural biases, and easily manipulated.
As if, all they are looking for is being able to add more bias. What they mean with security is, brand security. Companies are probably paying hard lobby money to have a backdoor into whatever large commercial LLM there is, to “protect” their brand. Read it as manipulating the general public to never have a single negative about a brand pop up whenever someone is asking for it.
