AI Industry Struggles to Curb Misuse as Users Exploit Generative AI for Chaos::Artificial intelligence just can’t keep up with the human desire to see boobs and 9/11 memes, no matter how strong the guardrails are.
Is this really something people are mad about? Who cares? This shit is hilarious.
Of all the fucking things to worry about with AI… Pregnant sonic being behind 9/11.
Well I mean it points to our inability to control the use of ai systems, that is in fact a very real problem.
If you can’t keep people from making stupid memes, you also can’t keep people from making misleading propaganda or other seriously problematic content.
Towards the end of the story there was the example where they couldn’t stop the system from giving people a recipe for napalm, despite “weapons development” being an explicitly banned topic. I don’t think I need to spell out how that’s a problem.
No, no one cares but it gets a bunch of clicks because it’s hilarious so articles keep getting written.
It’s a solved problem too. You just run the prompt and the result of the generation through a second pass of a fine tuned model checking for jailbreaking or rule breaking content generation.
But that increases cost per query by 2-3x.
And as you said, no one really cares, so it’s not deemed worth it.
Yet the clicks keep coming in for anti-AI articles, so they keep getting pumped out, and laypeople now somehow think jailbreaking or hallucinations are intractable problems preventing enterprise adoption of LLMs, which is only true for the most basic plug and play high volume integrations.

Huh, so basically it’s like every time my mom said “think before you speak”. You know, just run that line in your head once before you actually say it, to avoid saying something dumb/offensive.
Serious question - why should anyone care about using AI to make 9/11 memes? Boobs I can see the potential argument against at least (deep fakes and whatnot), but bad taste jokes?
Are these image generation companies actually concerned they’ll be sued because someone used their platform to make an image in bad taste? Even if such a thing we’re possible, wouldn’t the responsibility be on the person who made it? Or at worst the platform that distributed the images -As opposed to the one that privately made it?
I don’t see adobe trying to stop people from making 911 memes in photoshop nor have they been sued over anything like that, I dont get why AI should be different. It’s just a tool.
That’s a great analogy, wish I’d thought of it
I guess it comes down to whether the courts decide to view AI as a tool like photoshop, or a service - like an art commission. I think it should be the former, but I wouldn’t be at all surprised if the dinosaurs in the US gov think it’s the latter
Protect the brand. That’s it.
Microsoft doesn’t want non-PC stuff being associated with the Bing brand.
It’s what a ton of the ‘safety’ alignment work is about.
This generation of models doesn’t pose any actual threat of hostile actions. The “GPT-4 lied and said it was human to try to buy chemical weapons” in the safety paper at release was comical if you read the full transcript.
But they pose a great deal of risk to brand control.
Yet still apparently not enough to run results through additional passes which fixes 99% of all these issues, just at 2-3x the cost.
It’s part of why articles like these are ridiculous. It’s broadly a solved problem, it’s just the cost/benefit of the solution isn’t enough to justify it because (a) these issues are low impact and don’t really matter for 98% of the audience, and (b) the robust fix is way more costly than the low hanging fruit chatbot applications can justify.
I’d guess that they are worried the IP owners will sue them for singing their IP.
So sonic creators will say, your profiting by using sonic and not paying us for the right to use him.
But I agree that deep fakes can be pretty bad.
Was not expecting to see a pregnant sonic flying a plane today.
One step towards avoiding misuse is to stop considering porn to be misuse.
You opened up Pandora’s box. There’s no closing it.
We opened up pandoras box and Frankenstein’s monster crawled out, and his cerebral cortex is wired directly into 4chan, and also he’s a nazi.
