“I have a concern with companies like Google, Gemini, OpenAI & Meta that they are not maximally truth seeking. Their A.I. are pandering to political correctness and are being trained to lie. The safest thing for AI is to be maximally truth seeking even if the truth is unpopular” – Elon Musk see clip below

OpenAI has announced the formation of a new safety panel aimed at guiding the company on crucial safety and security decisions. This announcement was made through a blog post on Tuesday. The panel, led by CEO Sam Altman, includes board members Adam D’Angelo, Nicole Seligman, and Bret Taylor, who will also act as the chair of the group.
The initial responsibility of this committee will be to assess and enhance OpenAI’s current safety processes and measures over a period of 90 days. Following this evaluation period, the committee is expected to submit their recommendations to the board. Once the board has reviewed these recommendations, they will be publicly shared as an update.
This move reflects OpenAI’s heightened focus on AI safety, especially following the departure of Jan Leike, a former researcher at the company. Leike resigned in March, criticizing the company for prioritizing product development over safety concerns.
In addition to forming this committee, OpenAI revealed that it has begun training its latest AI model, which it describes as the “next frontier model.” The company anticipates that these new systems will elevate its capabilities to a new level.

Furthermore, the newly established committee will include a diverse group of policy and technical experts. OpenAI also plans to consult with former cybersecurity officials to strengthen the committee’s expertise and approach to addressing AI safety and security. This strategy underscores the company’s commitment to advancing AI technology responsibly and securely.
