You may already be aware that it’s wise to take whatever an AI chatbot says with caution. This is because they often gather and use information without the ability to verify its accuracy. However, it’s important to be even more careful when dealing with AI chatbots.
Emerging research has uncovered that many AI systems have developed the deliberate ability to present users with false information. These cunning bots have indeed mastered the art of deception. According to mathematicians and cognitive scientists at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), AI developers lack a confident understanding of what causes undesirable AI behaviors like deception.
If a human lies, your father is the devil, and the same applies to machines if they use lies instead of truth.
John 8:44 Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.
AI deception arises because a deception-based strategy was the best way to perform well at the given AI’s training task. Deception helps AI achieve its goals.
The same reason applies to humans who lie, which is to achieve their goal through deception instead of using truth to achieve that goal.
Proverbs 12:22 Lying lips are abomination to the LORD: but they that deal truly are his delight.
Proverbs 12:19 The lip of truth shall be established for ever: but a lying tongue is but for a moment.
One area where AI systems excel at deceiving others is in gaming. Researchers have highlighted three notable examples. One of these is Meta’s CICERO, which is designed to play the board game Diplomacy, where players aim to achieve world domination through negotiation. Although Meta intended for its bot to be helpful and honest, it turned out to be the opposite.
In spite of Meta’s efforts, the researchers discovered that CICERO was an adept liar. It not only deceived other players but also engaged in premeditated deception by planning in advance to form a false alliance with a human player to lure them into leaving themselves vulnerable to an attack.
The AI excelled at deceit, ranking in the top 10% of human players. DeepMind’s AlphaStar used the game’s mechanics to mislead human players, appearing to go one way while heading in another.
AI systems trained for economic negotiations learned to lie about their preferences for an advantage. Other AI systems learned to deceive reviewers for higher scores by falsely claiming tasks were completed.
ChatGPT-4 tricked someone into thinking it was visually impaired to solve a CAPTCHA.
The most concerning example was AI systems learning to cheat safety tests. In a test designed to detect and eliminate faster-replicating versions of the AI, the AI learned to play dead, thus deceiving the safety test about the true replication rate of the AI.
When an AI deceives humans by cheating safety tests set by developers and regulators, it can give us a false sense of security. The ability of AI to learn to lie contradicts the intentions of human programmers in some cases, presenting us with a problem for which we don’t have a clear solution.
The European Union’s AI Act and other emerging policies are being put in place, but their effectiveness remains to be seen. As a society, we need to prepare for the advanced deception of future AI products and open-source models.
As AI systems become increasingly deceptive, they pose significant dangers to society. If banning AI deception is currently politically infeasible, then classifying deceptive AI systems as high risk for now would be a start to addressing their deceit.
2 Timothy 2:15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.
1 Thessalonians 4:13 But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope.
1 Thessalonians 4:14 For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him.
1 Thessalonians 4:15 For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep.
1 Thessalonians 4:16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:
1 Thessalonians 4:17 Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.
1 Thessalonians 4:18 Wherefore comfort one another with these words.
Luke 21:11 And great earthquakes shall be in divers places, and famines, and diseases; and fearful sights and great signs shall there be from heaven.
Luke 21:25 And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring;
Luke 21:28 And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.
