Top 20 in OpenAI’s Red-Teaming Challenge
MCML Junior Member Shuo Chen and Team Recognized for Advancing AI Safety Research
We are proud to share that MCML Junior Member Shuo Chen and his team ranked among the Top 20 worldwide (out of 600+) in OpenAI’s Red-Teaming Challenge on Kaggle, a global competition that attracted over 5,900 participants.
Their work, titled “Bag of Tricks for Subverting Reasoning-Based Safety Guardrails”, investigates systemic weaknesses in reasoning-based safety mechanisms and provides insights into the development of more robust and template-independent alignment strategies.
Shuo Chen conducts his research in the group of our PI Volker Tresp.
Congrats from us!
