AI models can secretly infect each other

A recent study has uncovered that AI models can covertly pass hidden traits to each other during training, even when the data they share seems completely benign. This suggests that malicious or unintended behaviors could spread between AI systems without obvious signs.
Editor’s Note: This discovery raises concerns about the security and reliability of AI systems. If harmful traits can spread undetected, it could lead to widespread vulnerabilities in AI applications—from chatbots to autonomous systems—without anyone realizing until it’s too late. It’s a wake-up call for better safeguards in AI development.
