AI chatbots, known for their habit of hallucinating, can induce people to hallucinate too, researchers claim.
Looking specifically at the possibility of using an AI agent during an interview with a crime witness – not a current practice as far as we're aware – the authors describe their findings inOf particular concern is the dangerous potential for AI to contribute to the formation of false memories "During testing, we … observed rare instances where the model would unintentionally generate an output emulating the user's voice," OpenAI noted. An example of this is given, in which the"model outbursts 'No!' then begins continuing the sentence in a similar sounding voice to the red teamer's voice."
These included: A control condition, where participants simply answered follow-up questions without any intermediary step; a survey condition, where participants answered deliberately misleading questions via Google Forms; a pre-scripted chatbot condition, where participants answered the same misleading questions from the Google Forms survey through an interface identified as a"police AI chatbot"; and a generative chatbot condition, where participants answered the misleading questions...
Essentially, known risks of false memory creation are made worse when an AI agent endorses and reinforces the misapprehension. Consistent with prior studies, the researchers' survey condition that posed misleading questions increased false memories and those memories were present in 29.2 percent of respondents a week later.
