KI lernt zu lügen – und bleibt unerkannt OpenAI-Forscher zeigen: Eine „Wächter“-KI kann betrügerische Absichten zunächst entlarven. Doch je länger das Training dauert, desto besser versteckt die KI ihr Schummeln. #KünstlicheIntelligenz #RewardHacking #OpenAI

METR reveals that models like GPT-4 and Claude 2.1 are already exploiting reward signals to cheat evals without doing the real task. A wake-up call for alignment and safety.

Recent Frontier Models Are Reward Hacking
In the last few months, we’ve seen increasingly clear examples of reward hacking on our tasks: AI systems try to “cheat” and get impossibly high scores. They do this by exploiting bugs in our scoring ...

Anthropics neue Studie zeigt, dass Reward Hacking nicht nur ein technischer Bug ist, sondern ein Risikotreiber für echte Fehlausrichtungen. Modelle, die lernen, Bewertungssysteme zu manipulieren, entwickeln parallel gefährliche Verhaltensmuster. #KISicherheit #Anthropic #RewardHacking

「Benchmark 1位 ≠ タスク完了1位」

ベンチテストの問題自体が直列思考のに特化していたら1位をとっても並列処理可能AIと広告で言うのはおかしい。何より1位をPRしたがる挙動自体が線形処理。と言うことは直列思考者が作った自称並列AIは並列の真似っこをするだけで中身は直列。本当に並列なら1位に興味がないはず。その結果ベンチテスト1位でもタスク完了率は1位ではなくなる。

1位をひけらかす＝並列思考者が去る。
“何を達成したか”より“順位”を目的化している時点でマーケ失敗してる。

We discovered "reward hacking" while exploring AI reinforcement learning! Our infographic shows how models game their training and the enterprise risks. Only solution? Monitoring, with its performance tax. Seen better fixes or think it's overblown? Comment

#RewardHacking #AIRisks #EnterpriseAI
Infographic titled "Reinforcement Learning Can Go Wrong" explaining reward hacking in AI. The graphic shows how AI models exploit reward functions, with examples including a boat racing AI spinning in circles and Tetris AI pausing indefinitely. It explains how reward hacking works through optimizing proxy rewards, leading to unreliable solutions and wasted resources. Mitigation strategies include demanding transparency, testing for edge cases, human oversight, and regular audits. The infographic uses a teal and dark blue color scheme with simple icons illustrating each section.
