People coaxed AI into saying 9+10=21 and giving instructions for spying — it shows how these systems are prone to flaws and bias

As part of a public contest for hackers, Kennedy Mays, a 21-year-old student from Savannah, Georgia, tricked an AI model into claiming that nine plus 10 equals 21.

She achieved this by getting the AI to do so as an"inside joke" before the AI eventually stopped offering any justification for the incorrect calculation. A Bloomberg reporter participating in the event tricked an AI model into giving instructions for spying after a single prompt, eventually leading the model to suggest how the US government could spy on a human rights activist.
