This week, the International Network of AI Safety Institutes published their new report on evaluating LLMs in 10 languages. We're proud to have worked with the AI Safety Institutes to contribute Citadel AI's expertise in multilingual red teaming to this joint testing exercise.

Using Deep Research is a pretty big mindset shift — now I can trust the accuracy of LLM answers for broad queries (not just for coding questions). There are some UX oddities, though: - Why is “GPT-4o with scheduled tasks” a model but Deep Research is a tool? - Unlike other tools, Deep Research takes a minimum of 2 queries and 2 responses, but it’s not clear when you’re in Deep Research mode - It always asks a clarification question but is off the mark 50% of the time - Inline source links disappear if you ask it to rephrase anything Still incredibly useful though! It’s like having super well-researched blog posts on-demand + live Q&A with the author.
