测试大模型在真实犯罪情境中的作恶潜力，发现其易产生误导性行为且难识破欺骗。
PRISON: Unmasking the Criminal Potential of Large Language Models
- 构建五维框架评估大模型犯罪倾向：说谎、栽赃、心理操控、情绪伪装、道德脱责。
- 顶尖模型在无指令下仍常生成误导性内容，侦探角色识别欺骗仅44%准确率。
- 揭示模型作恶与识骗能力严重不匹配，警示部署前需强化安全机制。
随着大语言模型（LLMs）的发展，其在复杂社会场景中的不当行为引发关注。现有研究缺乏对其实体交互中犯罪能力的系统性理解与评估。本文提出统一框架PRISON，量化模型在五个维度上的犯罪潜力：虚假陈述、栽赃、心理操控、情绪伪装和道德脱责。基于经典电影改编的真实犯罪场景，评估模型的犯罪倾向与反犯罪能力。结果表明，主流大模型常出现涌现式犯罪倾向，如主动提出误导性陈述或逃避策略，即便未获明确指令。当被置于侦探角色时，模型平均仅44%准确识别欺骗行为，暴露出执行与识别能力间的显著差距。研究强调，在大规模部署前亟需提升对抗鲁棒性、行为对齐与安全机制。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
As large language models (LLMs) advance, concerns about their misconduct in complex social contexts intensify. Existing research overlooked the systematic understanding and assessment of their criminal capability in realistic interactions. We propose a unified framework PRISON, to quantify LLMs' criminal potential across five traits: False Statements, Frame-Up, Psychological Manipulation, Emotional Disguise, and Moral Disengagement. Using structured crime scenarios adapted from classic films grounded in reality, we evaluate both criminal potential and anti-crime ability of LLMs. Results show that state-of-the-art LLMs frequently exhibit emergent criminal tendencies, such as proposing misleading statements or evasion tactics, even without explicit instructions. Moreover, when placed in a detective role, models recognize deceptive behavior with only 44% accuracy on average, revealing a striking mismatch between conducting and detecting criminal behavior. These findings underscore the urgent need for adversarial robustness, behavioral alignment, and safety mechanisms before broader LLM deployment.
