Eliciting Harmful Capabilities by Fine-Tuning on Safeguarded Outputs

This is a ticketed event. Please register at this link.

Jackson Kaunismaa presents his new paper “Eliciting Harmful Capabilities by Fine-Tuning on Safeguarded Outputs”. He will discuss why output-level safeguards on frontier models don’t actually make the ecosystem safe, and how anyone with an open-source model can fine-tune it on adjacent-domain outputs from safeguarded models to recover a large fraction of the capability gap between open-source and frontier models on harmful tasks.
