Summary

This project outlines the development of an interactive web application aimed at involving users in understanding the AI skills for both producing believable scams and identifying deceptive content. The game challenges human players to determine if text messages are genuine or fraudulent against an AI. The project tackles the increasing threat of AI-generated fraud while showcasing the capabilities and drawbacks of AI detection systems. The application functions as both a training resource to improve human ability to recognize digital deception and a showcase of present AI capabilities in identifying fraud. By engaging in gameplay, users learn to identify the signs of AI-generated scams and enhance their critical thinking abilities, which are essential for navigating through an increasingly complicated digital world. This project enhances AI safety by equipping users with essential insights regarding AI-generated risks, while underscoring the supportive functions that humans and AI can fulfill in combating fraud.

Attention Pattern Based Information Flow Visualization Tool

Understanding information flow in transformer-based language models is crucial for mechanistic interpretability. We introduce a visualization tool that extracts and represents attention patterns across model components, revealing how tokens influence each other during processing. Our tool automatically identifies and color-codes functional attention head types based on established taxonomies from recent research on indirect object identification (Wang et al., 2022), factual recall (Chughtai et al., 2024), and factual association retrieval (Geva et al., 2023). This interactive approach enables researchers to trace information propagation through transformer architectures, providing deeper insights into how these models implement reasoning and knowledge retrieval capabilities.

The rapid adoption of AI in critical industries like healthcare and legal services has highlighted the urgent need for robust risk mitigation mechanisms. While domain-specific AI agents offer efficiency, they often lack transparency and accountability, raising concerns about safety, reliability, and compliance. The stakes are high, as AI failures in these sectors can lead to catastrophic outcomes, including loss of life, legal repercussions, and significant financial and reputational damage. Current solutions, such as regulatory frameworks and quality assurance protocols, provide only partial protection against the multifaceted risks associated with AI deployment. This situation underscores the necessity for an innovative approach that combines comprehensive risk assessment with financial safeguards to ensure the responsible and secure implementation of AI technologies across high-stakes industries.

CoTEP: A Multi-Modal Chain of Thought Evaluation Platform for the Next Generation of SOTA AI Models

As advanced state-of-the-art models like OpenAI's o-1 series, the upcoming o-3 family, Gemini 2.0 Flash Thinking and DeepSeek display increasingly sophisticated chain-of-thought (CoT) capabilities, our safety evaluations have not yet caught up. We propose building a platform that allows us to gather systematic evaluations of AI reasoning processes to create comprehensive safety benchmarks. Our Chain of Thought Evaluation Platform (CoTEP) will help establish standards for assessing AI reasoning and ensure development of more robust, trustworthy AI systems through industry and government collaboration.
