How nice that state-of-the-art LLMs reveal their reasoning … for miscreants to exploit
By Thomas Claburn and Jessica Lyons

Blueprints shared for jail-breaking models that expose their chain-of-thought process. Analysis: AI models like OpenAI o1/o3, DeepSeek-R1, and Gemini 2.0 Flash Thinking can mimic human reasoning through a process called chain of thought. That process, described by Google researchers in…
As these models become increasingly capable, the potential for misuse arises. The inherent chain-of-thought mechanism can be exploited, leading to calls for stricter guidelines and protective measures in AI development.
