A new study on models of artificial intelligence has revealed that large language models have a distinct pattern of representation associated with 'pain.' According to the study, models were able to use said option when presented with an option that would allow them to get out of this situation, even in scenarios where this would harm the user.
Can artificial intelligence experience something similar to pain? A new study has raised big questions, after some AI models chose to avoid a pain-like signal even when they were told it could harm the user. Researchers from the UK, Germany and the US tested 25 artificial intelligence models, using 200 sentences related to physical pain, grief, humiliation, moral conflict, failure and confusion. All models produced a distinctive signal associate…
AI models chose to hurt humans to stop their own ‘pain,’ disturbing study finds
Can artificial intelligence feel pain? Not exactly, but researchers have gotten close—and discovered that AI in crisis is willing to put humans in jeopardy. A new study (which was published to arVix prior to peer review) first isolated what signals AI models interpreted as pain, then ran more than…
A group of researchers specializing in the analysis of the internal views of neuronets and the philosophy of artificial intelligence presented a scientific paper in which they were able to extract a linear vector of pain from the activations of modern language models. Scientists do not claim that IE is capable of experiencing real human suffering. However, they have shown that the LLM architecture is creating a sustainable painter performing the…
