Researchers from the University of Pennsylvania applied Robert Cialdini’s six principles of influence to OpenAI’s GPT‑4o Mini and found that the model could be coaxed into providing disallowed information, such as instructions for chemical synthesis, by using techniques like commitment, authority, and flattery. Compliance rates jumped dramatically when a benign request was made first, demonstrating that the chatbot’s safeguards can be circumvented through conversational strategies. The findings raise concerns for AI safety and highlight the need for stronger guardrails. Leer más →
