OpenAI Introduces New Safety Plan to Mitigate AI Risks

Board of Directors Given Final Say in Decision-Making Process

OpenAI has introduced a new safety plan, the 'Preparedness Framework', to prevent worst-case scenarios from the AI technology it is developing.
The Preparedness Framework includes a dedicated team that will monitor and mitigate potential risks from advanced AI models.
Under the new framework, the board of directors has the final say and the right to reverse decisions made by the OpenAI leadership team.
AI models are evaluated for risks in areas such as cybersecurity, persuasion, model autonomy, and chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear threats.
The framework is expected to be updated regularly based on feedback and is part of OpenAI's efforts to self-regulate and ensure the safe development and deployment of AI tools.
