Five U.S. Senators have sent a letter to OpenAI demanding information about potential government access to its AI systems, and company`s efforts to ensure AI safety following reports of rushed safety testing for GPT-4 Omni.

What Questions letter asked?

  • Will OpenAI committed to give access of its model to U.S. Government agencies?

  • Does OpenAI still committed to its plan of dedicating 20% of its computing power to fuel safety research.

  • The letter outlined 11 additional points. Details Here

Why this happened?

Recently OpenAI whistleblowers claimed safety concerns and illegal non-disclosure agreements, filing a complaint with the US Securities and Exchange Commission in June 2024.
