Meta’s Zuckerberg weighs in on AI safety; favours evaluators over slowdown

Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg has stated that independent evaluators and advisors are the industry's best practice for ensuring the safety of artificial intelligence models. In a post on X on September 15th, Zuckerberg wrote, "Engaging independent evaluators and advisors is industry best practice."
