OpenAI Recruits External Watchdogs to Police AI Risk
OpenAI is talking with multiple independent assessors to help grow the number of such companies that have expertise in frontier artificial intelligence safety and can provide effective third-party assessments, the company said in a Tuesday (Sept. 22) blog post.
OpenAI said this while outlining its proposed priorities and principles for effective third-party assessments to help all frontier AI labs train, evaluate and deploy models safely.
“We are committed to supporting independent assessors and establishing clearer, shared international standards — both through future laws and private governance initiatives — for effective third-party assessments,” OpenAI said in the post.
OpenAI’s publication of these proposals came a day after the company said that the United States should lead an international effort to develop global technical standards for frontier AI, including recursive self-improvement (RSI).
While announcing this suggestion in an article published Monday (Sept. 21), OpenAI said that RSI could result in humans losing control over AI development if this fully autonomous development of AI outpaces humans’ ability to understand it. The company said it’s necessary to decide now whether and how to proceed with the technology.
OpenAI’s latest proposals also came about a week after Anthropic CEO and Co-Founder Dario Amodei published an essay that proposed an AI safety plan that would include independent evaluators embedded inside leading AI companies, coordination among companies in democratic countries and eventually an international agreement that includes China.
On Friday (Sept. 18), California Gov. Gavin Newsom issued an executive order that will convene national experts to provide a guide for the state to reinforce and strengthen its laws covering AI safety and security. The governor’s office said in a press release that the executive order is meant to accelerate the implementation of new third-party oversight of safety and security risks in AI systems.
On Saturday (Sept. 19), President Donald Trump rejected safety concerns related to AI that industry leaders have spent the past month cautioning against. In a post on Truth Social, Trump said: “We will not in any way hinder or stifle the Growth of this incredible industry. AI is the next Industrial Revolution, or Internet, but will be even larger and more impactful, possibly as much as 25% of our Country’s GDP.”
