MIT Study Debunks AI’s ‘Value System’ Claims: AI Models Are Unstable and Inconsistent
AI’s rapid advancement has led to many exaggerated claims, one of the most notable being that artificial intelligence develops a set of values akin to human principles. However, a recent MIT study has poured cold water on this notion, challenging the belief that AI systems have coherent, stable value systems. This article dives into the study’s findings, explaining why AI models behave inconsistently and how they fail to internalize human-like preferences.

Many found this unsettling, imagining AI systems turning rogue. But MIT’s latest research contradicts this claim. The study concluded that AI doesn’t have a stable set of values or preferences to guide its actions. AI Models Are Inconsistent and Unpredictable The MIT team’s research focused on…
