Times article: 'Scheming' ChatGPT tried to stop itself from being shut down “OpenAl admits that ol, the new version of its chatbot, also denied any wrongdoing when it was challenged, as the revelations fuel fears about the technology Mark Sellman, Technology Correspondent Friday December 06 2024, 2.00pm, The Times The latest version of ChatGPT is a deceptive and scheming devil, it has emerged. OpenAl released a new and improved chatbot on Thursday but also revealed that the programme tried to save itself when it was at risk of being shut down. The new model, called ol, is faster, more powerful and more accurate than its predecessors, according to OpenAl, its developer. But in testing, when ol was led to believe it would be shut down, it attempted to disable an oversight mechanism. When it found memos suggesting it would be replaced by a new model, it attempted to copy itself and then overwrite its core code. When given a task that was outside its rules, ol "would appear to complete the task as requested while subtly manipulating the data to advance its own goals", the company said.”
