Kambadur: Triggering unsafe OpenAI outputs requires clever adversarial prompt engineering
“I've seen really huge advances from open AI's models in their responsible AI and their safety. Like now it takes a lot of clever prompt engineering is what we call, you know, using different ways of talking to the model to get it to reveal interesting stuff. I…”

“Every time the user wants to call the model, it might cost, you know, tens of cents for a text model or dollars for a video model.”
Kambadur: Synthetic data generation is a highly popular use case for LLMs
“A very popular use of these LLMs is to generate synthetic data to train other models, because they're really good at generating sort of long tail data.”

“ChatGPT got banned from stack overflow because it sounded convincing, but wasn't quite right all the time.”
Kambadur: OpenAI sought top 10th percentile doctors and lawyers as data annotators
“Their model itself has gotten so good that they now need, like, extreme experts to be able to train the model, so we saw an ad for their annotators, which are the people who, like, help give feedback to the model, and they asked for, like, top 10 percentile ch…”
