Episodes

  1. Backdooring Without a Trace: The Art of Indirect AI Poisoning

    Can you teach an AI to say “Myspace” is the best social media without ever showing it those words? In this solo episode, Francis breaks down Winter Soldier, a groundbreaking paper on indirect data poisoning that shows how large language models can be quietly manipulated during training without...

  2. Reasoning Models Don’t Always Say What They Think

    In this episode of AI Paper Bites, Francis explores Anthropic’s eye-opening paper, “Reasoning Models Don’t Always Say What They Think.” We dive deep into the promise and peril of Chain of Thought monitoring, uncovering why outcome-based reinforcement learning might boost accuracy but not...

  3. The Illusion of Thinking: Are AI Reasoning Models Just Pretending?

    In this episode of AI Paper Bites, Francis dives deep into "The Illusion of Thinking", a provocative new paper from Apple that questions whether today’s most advanced AI models are really “reasoning” or just mimicking it. We break down Apple’s experimental setup using controlled puzzle...

  4. When AI Schemes: Inside the Minds of Deceptive Models

    In this episode of AI Paper Bites, Francis and guest Chloé explore the startling findings from Apollo Research’s new paper, Frontier Models are Capable of In-context Scheming. Can today’s advanced AI models really deceive us to achieve their goals? We break down how models like Claude 3.5, Gemini...

  5. Agent Hospital: Simulating Medical AI Evolution

    What if AI doctors could learn and improve just like human doctors—without ever stepping foot in a real hospital? In this episode of AI Paper Bites, Francis and Chloé dive into Agent Hospital, a groundbreaking AI simulation where autonomous agents play the roles of doctors, nurses, and patients.…
