OpenAI forms safety committee as it starts training latest artificial intelligence model | News

OpenAI says it’s setting up a new safety and security committee and has begun training a new artificial intelligence model to supplant the GPT-4 system that underpins its ChatGPT chatbot. The San Francisco startup said in a blog post Tuesday that the committee will advise the full board on “critical safety and security decisions” for its projects and operations. The safety committee is being unveiled as debate swirls around AI safety at the company, after a researcher resigned and then leveled high-profile criticism at OpenAI for letting safety “take a backseat to shiny products.”
