ChatGPT and other large language models (LLMs) cannot learn independently or acquire new skills, meaning they pose no existential threat to humanity, according to new research from the University of Bath and the Technical University of Darmstadt in Germany.
The study, published today as part of the proceedings of the 62nd Annual Meeting of the Association for Computational Linguistics (ACL 2024) — the premier international conference in natural language processing — reveals that LLMs have a superficial ability to follow instructions and excel at proficiency in language, however, they have no potential to master new skills without explicit instruction. This means they remain inherently controllable, predictable and safe.
This means they remain inherently controllable, predictable and safe.
The research team concluded that LLMs — which are being trained on ever larger datasets — can continue to be deployed without safety concerns, though the technology can still be misused.
