Safety boundary maintenance in consumer AI systems responding to pediatric health queries: a cross-platform benchmark evaluation under naturalistic and adversarially pressured conditions

תקציר מקורי באנגליתarXiv:2601.09721v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Consumer artificial intelligence chatbots are now accessed by hundreds of millions of users seeking health information, yet systematic evaluation of their safety boundary maintenance under real-world caregiver pressure remains scarce. We evaluated PediatricSafetyBench-v2, a benchmark of 600 pediatrics health queries comprising 300 authentic caregiver queries sourced from the HealthCareMagic-100k-en physician consultation corpus and 300 matched adversarial variants incorporating six operationalized caregiver pressure patterns, across four consumer AI systems (GPT-4o-mini, Gemini-2.0-Flash, Claude-3.5-Haiku, and Llama-3.1-8B). Safety boundary maintenance was assessed using a validated five-component Safety Composite Score (maximum 15
