There is growing concern about “honesty” in AI models, not just whether they work, but whether they tell the truth. UK researchers are now building ways to test honesty in large systems, especially under pressure or when the model knows it is being evaluated. If AI can lie or hide its true capabilities, that is a serious problem no one will catch until it’s too late.

They are using simulated networks and mock infrastructure to see what is really possible. The idea is simple: if you want to stop dangerous AI later, you need to know what it can do now.
