In this episode, Nathan sits down with Adam Gleave, founder of Far AI, for a masterclass on AI exploitability. They dissect Adam's findings on vulnerabilities in GPT-4's fine-tuning and Assistant PIs, Far AI's work exposing exploitable flaws in "superhuman" Go AIs through innovative adversarial strategies, accidental jailbreaking by naive developers during fine-tuning, and more.
