Summary
OpenAI outlined a new framework the company plans to follow for reporting future model misbehavior. The disclosure comes at a time of mounting pressure on AI companies to take model misalignment and safety more seriously. "We do not believe that the AI industry has solved alignment and monitoring to a sufficient degree to continue responsibly scaling at maximum speed for much longer," the blog post says, reiterating a prior statement from the company. Alignment refers to the idea that models are pursuing outcomes in line with human interests.
