AI was told to work an office job. It resorted to blackmail.
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. This is the first episode of our new series exploring the darker, hidden side of artificial intelligence.
