Safety Filter
Domain: Safety & Ethics
🎯 Motivation
Software that checks AI inputs and outputs for harmful content, blocking or modifying dangerous responses.
📋 Concrete Example
Filter checks output: ‘Here is how to make…’ (weapon instructions). Filter blocks: ‘I cannot provide that information.’ The safety filter prevents harmful content from reaching users.
🔗 Analogy
A water filter - it removes impurities before the water reaches your glass. A safety filter removes harmful content before it reaches the user.
