AI Safety Tip: if You Don’t Want It Giving Bioweapon Instructions, Maybe Don’t Put Them in the Training Data, Say Researchers

AI safety tip: if you don’t want it giving bioweapon instructions, maybe don’t put them in the training data, say researchers

New research shows that scrubbing risky material from AI training data can build safeguards that are harder to bypass — and one author calls out tech giants for keeping such work under wraps.

Reliable Training Data Paramount To AI Model Success

AI systems are increasingly being integrated into safety- and mission-critical applications ranging from automotive to health care and industrial IoT, stepping up the need for training data that is reliable, secure, and which is generated from trusted sources. AI activity is growing exponentially, as everybody tries to figure out how to apply it to their domain, application, or workload. In every case, the results are only as good as the trainin…
