OpenAI: New model needs more safety measures before launch
OpenAI's forthcoming artificial intelligence model Astra is the company's first to meet its "critical cybersecurity capability" threshold and will require stronger safeguards before release, the AI firm said Tuesday. In a blog post, OpenAI said Astra can find and exploit previously unknown security flaws across "many well-protected systems" without a human prompt to do so....
Apple has requested expedited discovery in a trade secrets lawsuit against OpenAI, accusing the AI company and former Apple employees of stealing valuable information. Apple alleges OpenAI attempted to obtain proprietary manufacturing process technology from a partner manufacturer. OpenAI counters that it would have implemented better security if its secrets were at risk and claims it is creating entirely new technology, thus not relying on Apple's information.
However, Apple's allegations suggest otherwise, and the case will be decided by a court. Despite Apple's accusations, OpenAI maintains innocence and resists the request for expedited discovery, arguing it is unnecessary and burdensome. In contrast, Apple views the expedited process as crucial for uncovering the extent of any trade secret theft and to help prevent further damage to its business.
