I learnt AI by watching YouTube videos, reading research papers and experimenting on my own. As I understood better how these algorithms work, I noticed that it is very simple to exploit them for unintended purposes. And I would like to learn more about it and be completely transparent.
I plan to exploit both commercial models such as ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini, and opensource models like LLaMA , Qwen etc. Once I find something interesting, I will notify the company about my discovery first and then will release all the information publicly.
I'll systematically test different prompt techniques across commercial and open-source models, log every result, report findings to companies privately first, then release everything on GitHub openly.
Costs for APIs (GPT, Claude, Gemini) $2,000
Compute on cloud for open-source model $1,200
Time invested over 4 months $3,500
Miscellaneous tools and hosting -$300
Amount requested: $7000
Just me
Worst case I find nothing new
None
