According to @AnthropicAI, elicitation attacks generalize across different open-source models and multiple chemical weapons task types. According to @AnthropicAI, open-source large language models fine-tuned on frontier model outputs exhibit greater uplift on these hazardous tasks than models trained on chemistry textbooks or self-generated data. According to @AnthropicAI, these results emphasize higher misuse risk when fine tuning on frontier outputs and underscore the need for rigorous safety evaluations and data provenance controls in AI development.

According to @AnthropicAI, new research finds that when open source models are fine tuned on seemingly benign chemical synthesis information generated by frontier models, they become much better at chemical weapons tasks, an effect described as an elicitation attack.

This result highlights a dual use AI safety risk where frontier model outputs can transfer sensitive capabilities into open source systems via fine tuning, elevating the urgency of governance and alignment controls.

According to Paolo Ardoino, Tether is making significant advancements in AI technology, including the implementation of an Inference Manager, support for fine and federated tuning, and the development of Agent LCP and generalized multinode support. These enhancements aim to optimize trading operations through AI-driven efficiencies and are part of Tether's broader strategy to accelerate its technological capabilities by hiring more personnel to support these initiatives. This progress is expected to enhance Tether's trading infrastructure and operational performance.

According to Vitalik Buterin, a high threshold for fine tuning AI models presents a double-edged sword. It allows developers more freedom to create fine-tuned models without being restricted. However, it also increases the liability of the original developers for outcomes that deviate significantly from the original model.
