OpenAI has investigated whether its GPT-4 language model poses a threat in this regard. 100 experts and biology students were divided into two groups.
In the metrics “Accuracy” and “Completeness,” OpenAI found “slight increases” in the values in the group with access to the AI model. However, the extent of these effects is not large enough to be considered statistically significant. The company describes the investigation as a "blueprint" for the development of an early warning system.
