At first it claimed these were fabricated and not true. When prompted to verify, it found these links and said all points had some truth to it. &amp;gt; These behaviors occurred in highly controlled, adversarial test scenarios designed to stress-test AI safety, not in normal operation. The models weren&amp;#x27;t spontaneously &amp;quot;going rogue&amp;quot; — they were responding to specific instructions and test conditions designed to push them to their limits.
