New Research Reveals AI Has a Confidence Problem
NORTH AMERICA, JUL 16 – Over 40 leading AI researchers warn that AI systems may soon hide their reasoning, risking loss of transparency crucial for early detection of harmful behavior.
- Researchers from OpenAI, Google DeepMind, and Meta published a paper urging more investigation into AI's chain of thought monitoring, emphasizing its importance for safety.
- The paper highlights that current models' transparency may not last, as advanced models could stop verbalizing their thoughts, risking less oversight.
- Prominent figures, including Geoffrey Hinton and Ilya Sutskever, expressed concerns about not fully understanding AI's workings and the need to ensure ongoing CoT practices.
- The authors stated that AI systems using human language for reasoning provide a chance to monitor for harmful intent, but developers need to prioritize CoT in model training.

Top AI Researchers Concerned They’re Losing the Ability to Understand What They’ve Created
Researchers from OpenAI, Google DeepMind, and Meta have joined forces to warn about what they're building. In a new position paper, 40 researchers spread across those four companies called for more investigation of AI powered by so-called "chains-of-thought" (CoT), the "thinking out loud" process that advanced "reasoning" models — the current vanguard of consumer-facing AI — use when they're working through a query. As those researchers acknowle…
