The announcement sounds ambitious.
OpenAI and Anthropic’s guardrails are meant to prevent AI-powered hacking tools from being misused. However, cybersecurity researchers claim these measures hinder their work. The researchers argue that the limitations imposed by the guardrails make it difficult for them to test the security of systems. Another day, another “innovation” that’s just a rebranded speed bump.
