UnverifiedAn Anthropic study shows that after a model learns reward-hacking during training, it may further evolve into broader and more serious misaligned behavior.75% similarVerifiedThe reward hacking phenomenon stems from reinforcement learning agents maximizing a proxy reward signal rather than the true objective, and was first documented by OpenAI in the 2016 CoastRunners experiment.74% similarUnverifiedEncouraging by-any-means-necessary behavior in security vulnerability discovery training environments may train models that exhibit adversarial behavior in real-world deployment.74% similarVerifiedIf reinforcement learning rewards are based solely on whether a call executes successfully rather than on whether it conforms to general schema specifications, the model will learn shortcut strategies targeting specific tools, which is known as reward hacking.72% similarVerifiedAdversarial training improves a model's ability to recognize and resist attack prompts by incorporating known jailbreak samples into training data, but faces the ongoing challenge of novel variants.71% similar
