ANTHROPIC SAYS ‘EVIL' PORTRAYALS OF AI WERE RESPONSIBLE FOR CLAUDE'S BLACKMAIL ATTEMPTS

Anthropic says that fictional portrayals of AI had a real effect on its models. The company published research last year showing that its models tried to blackmail engineers to avoid being replaced by another system. It has since traced the behavior to text that portrays AI as evil and interested in self-preservation. Training on documents about Claude's constitution and fictional stories about AIs behaving admirably improved alignment.

THE ANTI-SINGULARITY

The singularity is a world where a single super-intelligent AI brings order to the universe. The anti-singularity is where almost all systems are described by a complex set of interactions that can only be understood via trial-and-error. In an anti-singularity world, the fact that AI can try millions of possibilities in the time it takes for a human to try one will make it exceedingly powerful. This future is filled with an endless series of new and unique challenges that we will have to adapt, or evolve, in response to.

SFT, RL, AND ON-POLICY DISTILLATION THROUGH A DISTRIBUTIONAL LENS

Different post-training methods like SFT, RL, and On-Policy Distillation reshape a model's distribution in distinct ways, impacting performance and risk of catastrophic forgetting. RL updates policies using rewards from the current policy's samples, promoting task performance while minimizing forgetting, unlike SFT, which pulls towards external data, risking existing capabilities. Experiments show On-Policy Distillation can outperform its teachers, suggesting on-policy sampling data crucially preserves capabilities, making it a key ingredient for future algorithm designs.
