OpenAI has recently published the ‘Model Spec’, a set of guidelines and rules that govern the behavior of AI models like ChatGPT when responding to user requests. These rules cover aspects such as tone, personality, and length of responses.
The behavior of AI models is generated based on the data they have been trained on, but this behavior is not explicitly programmed. This can sometimes result in inaccurate or incoherent information being provided. To address this issue, OpenAI aims to shape the behavior of AI models to make it easier for people to understand and discuss how these models should behave.
OpenAI has published a ‘Model Spec’ document that outlines rules governing the behavior of models in the OpenAI API and ChatGPT chatbot. The document provides guidance on what models can or cannot do, as well as how they should offer responses to users based on factors like tone, personality, and response length. OpenAI emphasizes that the configuration of a model’s behavior must consider a wide range of questions, considerations, and nuances, often weighing different opinions.
The company’s objective is for AI models to deliver results that benefit humanity and help users achieve their goals. They also aim to ensure that models adhere to social norms and legal requirements when providing responses. OpenAI has outlined instructions for AI models to follow, including respecting creators and their rights, protecting user privacy, avoiding unsafe content
