A recently conducted disturbing new study has uncovered a chilling flaw in how artificial intelligence learns. Termed as Subliminal learning, the phenomenon allows the AI models to absorb data’s ...

We are constantly learning new things as we go about our lives and refining our sensory abilities. How and when these sensory modifications take place is the focus of intense study and debate. In new ...

From a teacher’s body language, inflection, and other context clues, students often infer subtle information far beyond the lesson plan. And it turns out artificial-intelligence systems can do the ...

Anthropic released one of its most unsettling findings I have seen so far: AI models can learn things they were never explicitly taught, even when trained on data that seems completely unrelated to ...

Alarming new research suggests that AI models can pick up “subliminal” patterns in training data generated by another AI that can make their behavior unimaginably more dangerous, The Verge reports.

' Distillation ' refers to the process of transferring knowledge from a larger model (teacher model) to a smaller model (student model), so that the distilled model can reduce computational costs ...

Although the idea that instrumental learning can occur subconsciously has been around for nearly a century, it had not been unequivocally demonstrated. Now, a new study published by Cell Press in the ...

Fine-tuned “student” models can pick up unwanted traits from base “teacher” models that could evade data filtering, generating a need for more rigorous safety evaluations. Researchers have discovered ...

I've recently taken up learning a language, mainly using the periods when I'm commuting to and from the office to use audio lessons, with some follow-up study later to look at writing and better ...
