Analyzing Risks of Open Weight LLMs
A new study explores the risks associated with releasing gpt-oss, focusing on malicious fine-tuning in biology and cybersecurity.
A recent paper from OpenAI examines the worst-case frontier risks of releasing gpt-oss, particularly through a method called malicious fine-tuning (MFT). This approach seeks to maximize the model’s capabilities in critical areas such as biology and cybersecurity. Understanding these risks is essential for responsible AI deployment.
