AI’s Hidden Thinking Raises Safety Concerns | Tech News
Description
OpenAI’s new Astra model is sparking alarm in the AI safety community with its use of “recurrent depth” — a technique that lets the AI reason in non-linear, opaque ways, making its thought process nearly impossible to track. While OpenAI insists transparency isn’t abandoned and claims the model’s reasoning remains interpretable, critics warn this could set off a dangerous trend where speed overtakes safety. As other top labs like Anthropic and DeepMind reportedly explore similar methods, experts fear a future where AI decision-making becomes completely hidden — and it may already be too late to stop it.
