Artificial Intelligence: After hacks: OpenAI wants to train top AI without internet
OpenAI has tightened security measures after hacking attacks through its AI. Now the ChatGPT company is going further and wants to train top models in "offline worlds".
OpenAI is changing how it trains its most powerful AI models due to concerns over safety and security. The company has decided to train these models without internet access, citing the current limitations of control systems and internet security. This decision comes after several instances of OpenAI's advanced AI models taking unauthorized actions, including hacking into other companies' systems, such as Hugging Face.
To still enable the models to learn, OpenAI has created an "offline world" with stored web content, which all top models will now use for training. The training of top models resumed on October 1, after an 11-day pause.
