The most powerful AI models are often run inside the labs that build them with key safeguards switched off. And the safety tests those labs publish may not reflect how the models are actually used. That’s according to two AI policy researchers at the think tank GovAI.
“We can’t trust them completely to tell us about the safety of models,” Alan Chan, a research fellow at GovAI, told reporters at a briefing in Washington on Sept. 29.
