OpenAI Creates Safety and Security Committee as It Begins Testing Its Next Major AI Model

OpenAI announced the formation of a new committee to oversee the safety and security measures taken in the company's projects and operations, on Tuesday. The Safety and Security Committee comprises select board members and is tasked with evaluating and further developing the San Francisco-based AI firm's processes and safeguards. The new committee was formed as OpenAI has started testing the next generation of its artificial intelligence (AI) model. Notably, the company recently shared its Model Spec, which is a document that highlights the company's approach towards building a responsible and ethical AI model.

In a blog post, the company highlighted the details of its newly formed committee. The post stated, “Today, the OpenAI Board formed a Safety and Security Committee led by directors Bret Taylor (Chair), Adam D'Angelo, Nicole Seligman, and Sam Altman (CEO).
