Inner workings of AI an enigma - even to its creators

  • Dario Amodei and other leading AI researchers revealed in April 2025 that they do not fully understand how generative AI models think.
  • This lack of understanding arose because generative AI is complex and new, creating urgent interest in mechanistic interpretability to study AI’s inner calculations.
  • Experts like Boston University's Mark Crovella and Google DeepMind's Neel Nanda compare deciphering AI models to understanding the human brain, which remains unsolved by neuroscientists.
  • Amodei expressed optimism that interpretability breakthroughs allowing detection of biases and harmful intents could emerge by 2027, enabling safer AI use in sensitive fields such as national security.
  • This progress suggests that mastering generative AI’s workings will shape humanity’s future and influence economic and technological leadership amid global competition.

World, May 15, 2025 (ATB Digital).- In the era of machines that learn on their own, even the architects of the future feel vertigo. Steve Wozniak, one of the pioneers of the computer revolution, has raised his voice with the gravity of those who have seen a new form of power born without fully understanding their course. “Artificial intelligence is so intelligent that it will remain at the mercy of bad people,” the American engineer assured, ref…

Humans have programmed it but do not fully understand it. Generative artificial intelligence (AI) remains a mystery, which engineers try to pierce before its capabilities explode, to avoid slipping. The post Technology: understand how AI reason before it becomes overpowering appeared first on LesEco.ma.
