MIT electrical engineering and computer science graduate student and lead author of research on auditing generative AI models for harmful capabilities.
This unlocks a new avenue for platforms that host open-source models and for law enforcement to actually test whether a model is capable of generating CSAM. Before, we had no way of measuring this. It was a huge blind spot that some people were taking advantage of. Now, we can address an AI safety problem that is having severe negative impacts.
