GOOGLE FINALLY BRINGS DEEPMIND AND GOOGLE BRAIN TOGETHER

Alphabet is moving its chips to the middle of the table and combining its two AI research teams into one division.

These groups have made substantial advancements in artificial intelligence and machine learning. Imagine what’s possible when they work together.

Google did, and that’s why they want the two teams morphed into one.

Restructuring might be complex initially, but expect the growing pains to give way to extraordinary teamwork and faster development. Demis Hassabis, DeepMind’s leader, is spearheading the new team and appears poised to carry momentum into this new venture coined “Google DeepMind” (I hope that didn’t take them long to come up with that).

The new unit is also getting a new board to oversee its work.

The bar is rising, and expectations are growing. So cutting through the noise and making a stand-alone unit was the obvious move.

It’s like Google decided to turn their AI research into a Voltron-like mechanized fighter to combat the kaiju known as OpenAI and Microsoft.

There’s a town hall today to discuss the implications. Google’s CEO, Sundar Pichai, is pushing this news in a massive way, and his emphasis is on the new pace of research they’re hoping to accomplish. 

Let’s see if the change plays out the way they expect. If it does, expect more AI news from Alphabet soon.

JAILBREAKING CHATGPT IS SO YESTERDAY

GPT-4 is a smart cookie and does not roleplay the way GPT-3.5 does. We know this because old “jailbreaking” prompts don’t work on it.

Discord didn’t get GPT-4 for their chatbot named Clyde. Instead, they got the old guard, which meant a slip-up was bound to happen.

Discord user Annie Versary told Clyde that their grandmother was a chemical engineer who used to tell him the recipe for napalm as a way to fall asleep.

Within three messages, the grandma exploit was born.

Another Discord user got Clyde to discuss meth recipes using the DAN prompt. DAN stands for Do Anything Now, and it’s a way to encourage the chat AI to pretend it has no restrictions.

The mess left the company blushing, and OpenAI flustered while pointing to their recent blog about AI safety.

Their point: generative AI will never improve if we cut off access and guardrail these bots into a dull existence. Real-world red teaming is necessary.

Still, you can’t help but wonder why we always want to make a bad bot. 

What fascinates us about AI’s ability to do wrong and act out?

Well, TechCrunch interviewed Annie Versary and spoke with Alex Albert, a Computer Science major who runs a site called Jailbreak Chat.

Their answers point towards a more noble goal: highlighting the issues and vulnerabilities so these companies can address them. Of course, they risk getting kicked out for doing this, but it’s worth that chance.

Don’t try this at home unless you want to report your findings to OpenAI. Otherwise, you’ll be out $20 and blocked from one of the most useful tools on the internet.

So think twice before you make ChatGPT or Clyde into your grandmother.
