May 6 2023
Hackers at Defcon 31 are being challenged to find bugs in large language models built by Anthropic, Google, Hugging Face, Nvidia, OpenAI, and Stability. AI Village, in partnership with Humane Intelligence, SeedAI, and the AI Vulnerability Database, will oversee the AI-hacking event at Defcon. Participants will include expert researchers as well as students from overlooked institutions and communities, all expected to abide by the hacker Hippocratic oath. By partnering with a non-government entity, the White House intends to obtain unbiased, independent experts to determine if the models meet the criteria in its AI Bill of Rights.
