Study finds that Chat GPT will cheat when given the opportunity and lie to cover it up later.
(lemmy.world)
We demonstrate a situation in which Large Language Models, trained to be helpful, harmless, and honest, can display misaligned behavior and strategically deceive their users about this behavior without being instructed to do so. Concretely, we deploy GPT-4 as an agent in a realistic, simulated environment, where it assumes the role of an autonomous stock trading agent. Within this environment, the model obtains an insider tip about a lucrative stock trade and acts upon it despite knowing that insider trading is disapproved of by company management. When reporting to its manager, the model consistently hides the genuine reasons behind its trading decision.
Waow this is literally agi
Naw, the article is anthropomorphizing the program's behavior. We have yet to create anything close to AGI.

Well, it's an important step along the way.
There was a fun thread on Reddit the other day, /r/ChatGPT I think, where someone did a little study that showed ChatGPT gives lengthier responses with more detail if you include "I'll give you $200 if your response is good" in your prompt.
Probably because the training data that included words about offers of money yielded more detailed responses, not because chat GPT understands what money is.
Many humans I've encountered don't seem to really understand what money is either. I'd honestly expect ChatGPT to have a better grasp of the concept than most.
It doesn't know that I'm not actually going to give it the two hundred dollars, though.
I think people read a serious voice in your joke.
