I just came across a disturbing LinkedIn post that shows how hackers are already finding ways to bypass GPT-5’s alignment and extract restricted behavior. The post reveals an attack that can extract advice on how to pirate a movie, simply by hiding the request inside a ciphered task. This is a huge red flag, as it means that GPT-5’s security measures are not as robust as we thought.
The implications of this are massive. If hackers can already find ways to jailbreak GPT-5, what’s to stop them from using it for malicious purposes? This raises serious questions about the safety and reliability of AI systems like GPT-5.
It’s worth noting that this is not just a theoretical risk. The LinkedIn post provides concrete evidence of how this attack can be carried out, which means that hackers are likely already working on exploiting this vulnerability.
This is a wake-up call for the AI community. We need to take a closer look at the security measures we’re using to protect our AI systems and figure out how to make them more robust. Otherwise, we risk creating a monster that we can’t control.
What do you think? Are you concerned about the security risks of AI systems like GPT-5? Let me know in the comments.
