Researchers at the AI company Anthropic say they have made a fundamental breakthrough in our understanding of exactly how large language models, the type of AI responsible for the current boom, work. The breakthrough has important implications for how we may be able to make AI models safer, more secure, and more reliable in the future.
One of the problems with today’s powerful AI that is based around large language models (LLMs) is that the models are black boxes. We can know what prompts we feed them and what output they produce, but exactly how they arrive at any particular response is a mystery, even to the AI researchers who build them.
This inscrutability creates all kinds of issues. It makes it difficult to predict when a model is likely to “hallucinate,” or confidently spew erroneous information. We know these large AI models are susceptible to various jailbreaks where they can be tricked into jumping guardrails (the limits the AI model developers try to put a
