OpenAI on Monday said its Safety and Security Committee, which the company introduced in May as it dealt with controversy over security processes, will become an independent board oversight committee. Other members include Adam D'Angelo, an OpenAI board member and co-founder of Quora, former NSA chief and board member Paul Nakasone, and Nicole Seligman, former executive vice president at Sony. The committee will oversee "the safety and security processes guiding OpenAI's model deployment and development," the company said. The company said the committee "reviewed the safety and security criteria that OpenAI used to assess OpenAI o1's fitness for launch," as well as safety evaluation results. Leike wrote in a post on X that OpenAI's "safety culture and processes have taken a backseat to shiny products."

Las Vegas, Nevada CNN —Thousands of hackers will descend on Las Vegas this weekend for a competition taking aim at popular artificial intelligence chat apps, including ChatGPT. The hackers are working with the support and encouragement of the technology companies behind the most advanced generative AI models, including OpenAI, Google, and Meta, and even have the backing of the White House. “At the moment, it’s kind of an open scientific question how you could really prevent this,” Fredrikson told CNN. Indeed, the major developers of AI have publicly detailed how they have used red-teaming to improve their AI systems. Arati Prabhakar, the director of the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy, told CNN the Biden administration’s support of the competition was part of its wider strategy to help support the development of safe AI systems.

A group of researchers said they have found ways to bypass the content moderation of AI chatbots. One researcher involved in the study told Wired there was "no way" to patch the attacks. A group of researchers said they have found virtually unlimited ways to bypass the content moderation on major AI-powered chatbots, and no one is quite sure how to fix it. "There's no way that we know of to patch this," Zico Kolter an associate professor at CMU who was involved in a study told Wired. The study raises questions about the safety of publically available AI products such as ChatGPT.
