OpenAI has set up a 'Safety and Security Committee' to assess its artificial intelligence models, with CEO Sam Altman also on board, as it begins to train its next artificial intelligence model.
AI startup said in a blog post on May 28 that the committee will make recommendations to the board on safety and security-related decisions for OpenAI’s projects.
The committee will spend the next 90 days evaluating the safeguards in OpenAI’s architecture and submit a report. “Following the full board’s review, OpenAI will publicly share an update on adopted recommendations in a manner that is consistent with safety and security,” the company said.
The committee will also include Directors Bret Taylor, Adam DâAngelo and Nicole Seligman, aside of CEO Sam Altman.
OpenAI said it would continue to consult outside experts - naming two of them - Rob Joyce, a Homeland Security adviser to Donald Trump, and John Carlin, a former Justice Department official under President Joe Biden.
OpenAI's recent strides in artificial intelligence had raised concerns about potential dangers - leading to a differences of opinion with co-founder and chief scientist Ilya Sutskever - which led to CEO Sam Altman's brief ouster late last year. Earlier in May 2024, Sutskever and a key deputy - Jan Leike -left the OpenAI, citing they were 'struggling' for computing resources.
