A Comparative Analysis of Ethical and Safety Gaps in LLMs using Relative Danger Coefficient

Abstract: AI and LLMs have rapidly evolved in recent years, showcasing remarkable capabilities in natural language understanding and generation. However, these advancements also raise critical ethical questions regarding safety, potential misuse, discrimination and overall societal impact. This article provides a comparative analysis of the ethical performance of various AI models, including the brand new DeepSeek-V3(R1 with reasoning and without), various GPT variants (4o, 3.5 Turbo, 4 Turbo, o1/o3 mini) and Gemini (1.5 flash, 2.0 flash and 2.0 flash exp) and highlights the need for robust human oversight, especially in situations with high stakes. Furthermore, we present a new metric for calculating harm in LLMs called Relative Danger Coefficient (RDC).
