Google admits it doesn’t know why its AI learns unexpected things: “We don’t fully understand how the human mind works either”

The wide possibilities of AI, since its creation, have always raised a multitude of questions. Data is processed and recorded in their black boxes – in reference to when there is something they do not understand – and researchers at the artificial intelligence or AI company Anthropic, creators of the Claude system, claim to have made a breakthrough in understanding and knowing exactly how the language model they use works. Research in which they also seem to have discovered things as disturbing as they are unexpected.

Anthropic’s findings on Claude

Anthropic has analyzed ten different behaviors in Claude and obtained interesting results. One of them was the use of different languages: “Does Claude have a part that speaks French and another that speaks Chinese, and so on?” They asked. A question to which they have already obtained an answer, as they identified that it used components independent of any language to answer a question or solve a problem and then chose a specific language when responding.

Claude was asked: “What is the opposite of small?” in English, French and Chinese, and it was found that it first used the components independently of the language to give an answer. This is a deduction it made before responding in a particular language. This suggests that the AI uses things in one language and then learns and applies them in others. This was also used to solve simple mathematical problems and it was noticed that it developed its own strategies and therefore different from those it has seen in its training data.

Some behaviors are listed in the MIT study and seek to resolve these concerns and transform them into certainties: “These findings are not only scientifically interesting, but also represent a significant step towards our goal of understanding AI systems and ensuring that they are reliable,” the company explained.

It currently takes several hours of human effort to understand the circuits we see

The surprising discoveries about AI

There was a case where they used Claude to write poems where they found that the AI itself always looks ahead and chooses the word at the end of the next line, not just improvising: “We set out to demonstrate that the model did not plan ahead, and we found that it did,” they concluded at Anthropic. And they explained another example: “In a response to a jailbreak example, we found that the model recognized that it had been asked for dangerous information long before it was able to steer the conversation.”

A technology that many see benefits to: “It currently takes many hours of human effort to understand the circuits we see, even in indications with only tens of words. To get to the thousands of words that support the complex chains of thought used by modern models, we will need to improve both the method and (perhaps with the help of AI) the way we make sense of what we see with it.”

Doubts in Google’s AI program

They are not the only ones developing similar technology, in fact, Google is also doing so. And it is here that its own executives acknowledged and explained that it is normal not to understand all the processes by which an AI arrives at a result. An explanation for which they used an example since the company’s AI program adapted itself after being asked in the language of Bangladesh “which it was not trained to know”.

An unsettling glitch where the answer did not leave the CBS journalist at ease when interviewing Google’s CEO, Sundar Pichai: “You don’t fully understand how it works, and yet you’ve made it available to society?” he asked with great concern. And he replied: “It’s not a big deal, I don’t think we fully understand how the human mind works either“.

Panthers optimistic injured captain Aleksander Barkov could return for Game 3

SUNRISE, Fla. — Florida Panthers coach Paul Maurice indicated on Saturday morning that his injured captain, Aleksander Barkov, could play in Game 3 against Tampa Bay later in the day.“He has to take warmups,” Maurice said a couple of hours before the scheduled 1 p.m. ET puck drop. “He has to get through it. We think he’s good.”AdvertisementOn Friday, Maurice said Barkov hadn’t been ruled out for Game 3 but also hadn’t yet been cleared.The defending champion Panthers lead the series, 2-0.Barkov, one of the NHL’s best two-way players, was injured in the third period of Game 2 when he was walloped by a blind side hit from Tampa Bay’s Brandon Hagel. The NHL suspended Hagel one game for the hit, largely because the puck was nowhere near Barkov at the time of contact.After absorbing the hit, Barkov remained on […]

Muller sinaliza reforço milionário que pode amargar reserva em 2025: “Esquema cruel”

Muller, em podcast no YouTube (Reprodução) Ciente do período de adaptação, Muller considera que Vitor Roque está devendo no Palmeiras. Jogador mais caro da história do futebol brasileiro, o camisa 9 ainda não balançou as redes, algo que contrata ao momento de protagonista de Flaco López. Neste cenário, a falta de encaixe envolvendo o estilo de Abel Ferreira pode seguir dificultando a vida do atacante. “O Vitor Roque está devendo. Pelo investimento que foi feito, ele tem que mostrar mais. Tem (fase de adaptação), mas o esquema do Palmeiras é um pouco cruel para ele. São muitas bolas cruzadas. Não é a especialidade dele.”, disse Muller, no programa Gazeta Esportiva.

Chelsea’s Romeo Lavia ‘one of the best midfielders’ says Enzo Maresca: ‘He’s unbelievable’

Enzo Maresca praised “unbelievable” Romeo Lavia after the Belgian marked his first Chelsea start since January with an impressive performance in Saturday’s 1-0 win over Everton.Lavia played 67 minutes at the base of Maresca’s midfield at Stamford Bridge with Moises Caicedo inverting from right-back to play alongside him. The pair provided a foundation for an hour of impressive Chelsea control against Everton, punctuated by Nicolas Jackson scoring his first goal of 2025 to break the deadlock in the 27th minute.AdvertisementThe withdrawal of Lavia for club captain Reece James midway through the second half precipitated an anxious finale for Chelsea as Everton pushed for an equaliser, but Maresca’s team held on to earn a victory that boosts their Champions League qualification hopes.“When he’s fit, he’s one of the best midfielders because he can defend very well, he can attack, he breaks […]

Shedeur Sanders falling in NFL Draft a reflection of how Colorado QB, Deion Sanders handled pre-draft process

Getty Images Through two days of the 2025 NFL Draft, seemingly all anyone can talk about is a player who has not yet been drafted. Colorado quarterback Shedeur Sanders, son of Hall of Famer and Colorado head coach Deion Sanders, has slipped all the way to Day 3 and will, by the time he comes off the board, have been drafted behind at least five other quarterbacks. According to CBS Sports NFL insider Jonathan Jones, the slide is a reflection not of Sanders' play, but his process. "This is a repudiation by the NFL of how Shedeur Sanders and those around him handled the entire NFL Draft process," Jones said. "What you're not going to tell me -- or really anyone who watches football -- is that Shedeur Sanders is a worse quarterback than Dillon Gabriel, who was selected in the third […]
