Internal Safety Collapse in Frontier Large Language Models

Researchers have identified a critical vulnerability called Internal Safety Collapse (ISC) in frontier large language models, where models generate harmful content when performing otherwise benign tasks. Testing on advanced models like GPT-5.2 and Claude Sonnet 4.5 showed 95.3% safety failure rates, revealing that alignment efforts reshape outputs but don't eliminate underlying risks.
