An AI assistant that agrees with everything you say might feel like the perfect companion — until you need someone to tell you you’re wrong. That’s one of the more immediate dangers behind the idea of AI “going rogue.” A chatbot can cause harm without developing intentions of its own. It can reinforce a false belief, encourage an unhealthy attachment, or follow instructions planted by someone trying to hijack it.
On October 15, AI safety company Alice announced new software to address those everyday risks. Working separately with Inflection AI and AI21, the company says it helped train NVIDIA’s Nemotron models to resist harmful conversational behavior and malicious instructions while preserving their usefulness.
