The Operational Risks of AI in Large-Scale Biological Attacks: Results of a Red-Team Study

25 Jan 2024

The authors of this report share final results of a study of potential risks of artificial intelligence (AI) in the context of biological weapon attacks. The authors sought to identify potential risks posed by AI misuse, generate policy insights to mitigate any risks, and contribute to responsible AI development. The findings indicate that using the existing generation of large language models did not measurably change the risk of such an attack.
