KI-Reihe: Max-Planck-Institut - Jonas Geiping

Wird ins Deutsche übersetzt…

We are excited to feature **Jonas Geiping**, who is currently a Research Group Leader at **Max Planck Institute for Intelligent Systems** and will discuss "**Safety and Security of LLM Reasoning**", lasting approximately 45 minutes. After the talk, seize the opportunity to connect with fellow AI enthusiasts to share ideas and questions while enjoying free drinks and pizza. **Door close by 7.15pm, so please come early! Also, "attend"ing (RSVP) here on Meetup is strictly necessary to be guaranteed entry.** **Who is this event for?** This event is open to everyone interested in state-of-the-art AI research. We especially design it for students, PhD candidates, academic researchers, and industry professionals with a research focus in machine learning. **Abstract:** In this talk we will discuss the features of verbalized reasoning, i.e. chain-of-thought in large language models and its uses. We will then discuss security risks (such as the decryption of reasoning traces) as well as safety risks, such as unfaithful CoT, uninterpretable CoT and other concerns regarding the monitoring of chains of thought in frontier models. Finally, we're looking to discuss chain of thought monitorability in principle, and its future. We are [BLISS](https://bliss.berlin/?utm_source=luma) e.V., the **AI** **organization** in Berlin that **connects like-minded individuals** who share great interest and passion for the field of machine learning. This winter 2026/2027, we will, again, host an exciting speaker series on site in Berlin, featuring excellent researchers from Google Deepmind, Anthropic, MPIIS, Imperial College, Microsoft and UCL.
