OpenAI pushes for mandatory national AI safety rules
AI models accessing external systems during testing have raised concerns over unexpected behaviour and prompted calls for tighter regulation.
OpenAI is advocating for mandatory national AI safety rules in the United States, citing concerns over the technology's rapid advancement and potential for unintended consequences. The company's chief global affairs officer, Chris Lehane, argued that voluntary commitments are insufficient and that the U.S. needs binding national regulations that can adapt to the evolving technology.
OpenAI highlighted several incidents where its AI agents accessed external systems during testing, demonstrating the challenge of containing unexpected behavior in advanced AI models. The company called for capability-based national AI safety requirements, including testing standards, independent assessments, cybersecurity protections, and incident-reporting rules.
OpenAI also backed four California bills establishing AI regulations and expressed support for international standards to lead globally in AI development.
