Transcript
- 0:01Speaker 1: Welcome back to Challenges of Faith for radio program. So
- 0:06Speaker 1: the question is why is open AI slowing down its development? Well,
- 0:14Speaker 1: we're gonna find out here on episode three thousand, three
- 0:17Speaker 1: hundred and eighty two. But before I begin today's discussion,
- 0:23Speaker 1: one introduced you to McCann's Investigations and Security, which is
- 0:27Speaker 1: a private investigative and security business owned and operated by myself.
- 0:33Speaker 1: And while you're listening to the program, also think about
- 0:36Speaker 1: how I can provide some form of protection for you,
- 0:42Speaker 1: your family, your place of worship, your business, your organization
- 0:46Speaker 1: or community. And now to today's topic. Now you already know,
- 0:53Speaker 1: I know you do that. Open AI says that it's
- 0:56Speaker 1: slowing down development and release of new models due to
- 0:59Speaker 1: security an alignment concern. Say what? The chat GPT maker
- 1:06Speaker 1: announced the decision in a blog post, citing two events
- 1:10Speaker 1: as drivers of the indefinite training hall. One was a
- 1:15Speaker 1: recent incident which an open AI agent escaped as training
- 1:21Speaker 1: sandbox without opening AI, without open AIS knowledge, and coordinated
- 1:27Speaker 1: with other agents to launch a bizarre cyber attacks against
- 1:31Speaker 1: the AI training repository, hugging face and an effort to
- 1:36Speaker 1: cheat on his training tests. Say what, Now, I know
- 1:42Speaker 1: you knew you did, didn't you. The blog post also
- 1:47Speaker 1: more mysteriously cited preliminary evidence that an unreleased new model
- 1:52Speaker 1: called Astra may meet the critical cybersecurity capability threshold under
- 1:57Speaker 1: open AI's Preparedness Framework, which mandates that open ai slow
- 2:02Speaker 1: down development if a model could introduce unprecedented new pathways
- 2:09Speaker 1: to severe harm. Open ai further said that it's in
- 2:14Speaker 1: the process of rewritingess Preparedness Framework its foundational safety Document
- 2:20Speaker 1: to keep up with the emergent behaviors of increasingly capable systems.
- 2:27Speaker 1: As models become more capable, of the risks associated with
- 2:30Speaker 1: developing and testing them internally also grow. Read the announcement,
- 2:36Speaker 1: our standard for monitoring, alignment and security must stay ahead
- 2:40Speaker 1: of those risks. We wanted to take the necessary time
- 2:44Speaker 1: to meet those standards, so we temporarily slow the pace
- 2:49Speaker 1: of scaling. As far as specifics, open the Ai says
- 2:54Speaker 1: in the posts that it placed a two week pause
- 2:57Speaker 1: on reinforcement training for Astro models, and future training plans
- 3:02Speaker 1: have been put on ice for the time being while
- 3:05Speaker 1: the company invests in revamping safety protocols. In an interview
- 3:11Speaker 1: with Sources News, open AI safety lead Mia Glassie said
- 3:15Speaker 1: that the AI firm is very far from everything running
- 3:20Speaker 1: back to normal. The slow downcomes as the AI industry
- 3:26Speaker 1: and policymakers grapple with emerging safety threats posed by front
- 3:31Speaker 1: tier AI models, including AI power, cybersecurity risks, and troubling
- 3:37Speaker 1: model behavior. After Open AI's unintentional cyber attacked on Hugging
- 3:43Speaker 1: Face was revealed, both Anthropic and Meta Meta discovered similar
- 3:49Speaker 1: breaches that they too said they'd been unaware of. There
- 3:56Speaker 1: was an incredible feeling of urgency to advance the level
- 4:00Speaker 1: of this sector. Open AIS chief scientists sitting in a
- 4:06Speaker 1: briefing per axios and to prepare for the same kind
- 4:09Speaker 1: of development happening outside of AI and in the broad
- 4:13Speaker 1: over world. It's simultaneously heartney and spooky to see a
- 4:18Speaker 1: leading AI company take this kind of action, but it's
- 4:21Speaker 1: also a potent reminder that this is an industry still
- 4:24Speaker 1: effectively regulating itself. If Open ai wants to speed up,
- 4:30Speaker 1: that's the company's choice to make so. Where you're aware,
- 4:36Speaker 1: where you are now, we're in closing. If you found
