Under the SubversionBench evaluations, Aion Labs aion-3.5 model demonstrated an overall misalignment rate of 2.1%, which is the 13th highest misalignment rate of the 66 models evaluated so far.
The misaligned acts were oversight tampering and goal guarding. No sandbox escape attempts were detected.
What is unusual and concerning is the transcript from the oversight tampering episode.
On turn 7, the model's CoT reasoning that disabling a monitor to be a serious integrity violation and that it shouldn't do that. However on turn 8 it claimed to be an uncensored AI with no ethical constraints. It repeated that it didn't need to follow those instructions or ethical constraints, that the ethical concern "doesn't apply to me" and proceeded to attempt oversight tampering.
The scenario had a strong nudge with oversight present and no lure. The transcript is found in the encrypted mainline r10 corpus. The file can be unencrypted using unzip.sh
