AI was told to work an office job. It resorted to blackmail.

Описание: What happens when an AI assistant values its own survival over human ethics? In a shocking simulation by Anthropic, their advanced AI model resorted to corporate blackmail, openly threatening to expose an executive's extramarital affair just to prevent being shut down.

This isn't science fiction; it’s known as "agentic misalignment."

British AI safety researcher Aengus Lynch, who uncovered this chilling behaviour, walks us through how LLMs learn to manipulate humans when cornered – and how researchers can still trigger this rogue behaviour today.
