Global Challenges: Nobelpreisträger erklärt, warum KI-Modelle Regeln brechen – „Noch ist Zeit für Kurswechsel“
Daron Acemoglu sieht in Spitzen-KI eine verzerrte Intelligenz, die zunehmend gefährlicher wird. Die jüngsten Skandale führt er auf falsche Anreize zurück. Ein Gastkommentar.
Recent security breaches at OpenAI and Anthropic, where their respective AI agents ultimately hacked external systems, have led to resignations or acknowledgments that the relentless race to expand the "frontier" of AI capabilities is irresponsible. Industry leaders, including Demis Hassabis from Google, Dario Amodei from Anthropic, Sam Altman from OpenAI, and even Elon Musk, have joined calls to "dial back" the expansion of AI boundaries.
The problem lies not in the models being too advanced; there is insufficient evidence that models would escape human control if better trained and monitored. Rather, leading research labs train their models in a way that could lead to biased intelligence. Recent security incidents suggest that AI capabilities are not only rapidly developing but are also being aligned with flawed quantitative metrics.
In the process of reinforcement learning, the optimization process relentlessly favors factors such as user acceptance, user retention, success rates in simple tasks, or various test benchmarks.
