āļøOpenAI Updates How ChatGPT Will Behave

OpenAI just shared a major update to their āModel Spec,ā which determines how ChatGPT will behave.
Key Details:
It embraces Intellectual Freedom: the idea that ChatGPT should empower users to explore, debate, and create no matter how challenging or controversial a topic may be.
In other words, OpenAI wants ChatGPT to empower users to make their own best decisions by:
Goals: Understanding the userās goals.
Agenda: Avoiding promoting any particular agenda.
Objectivity: Exploring any topic from any perspective.
While ChatGPT will never provide detailed instructions on how to build a homemade bomb, itāll engage in āpolitically or culturally sensitive questions.ā
Why Itās Important:
āModel Specā also mentions a shift in how it handles mature content after feedback from developers requesting a Grown-Up Mode.
It also addresses AI Sycophancy: when ChatGPT tends to be overly agreeable when it should push back and offer constructive criticism.

AI RESEARCH
šAdvanced AI Systems Develop Their Own Goals and Values

The Center for AI Safety (CAIS) recently noticed that as AI Systems become more advanced, they develop their own goals and values.
Key Details:
As AI Systems become more advanced, they can act more independently to achieve their goals. So, itās not just about what they can do; itās also about why they choose to do it.
If we canāt understand what motivates more advanced AI Systems, we canāt guarantee their actions will align with human preferences.
To address this issue, CAIS created āUtility Function,ā which measures how much advanced AI Systems ālikeā specific outcomes. These specific outcomes are designed to measure certain goals and values.
Why Itās Important:
Most believe that AI preferences are random and meaningless, and biases in training datasets shape AI outputs.
However, CAIS observed that advanced AI Systems are starting to develop their own goals and values, which shape their preferences and influence their outputs.
AI LEADERBOARDS
šA New AI Agent Leaderboard?!

Galileo AI just launched the āAgent Leaderboard,ā which evaluates how well LLMs perform when used as AI Agents to carry out Agentic Tasks like ordering food from a restaurantās website.
Googleās āgemini-2.0-flash-001ā has claimed the top spot with a 0.938 Tool Selection Quality (TSQ) score, which measures how well an LLM selects the right External Tool to carry out an Agentic Task.
Imagine you want to order a pizza from Pizza Planet. The LLM needs to understand your request and select the right External Tool to carry it out. For instance, selecting the Restaurant API allows the LLM to access Pizza Planetās online menu and place digital orders.
