OpenAI is scared of open-weight models. Should the US be?

TechCrunch 3 months ago 20 ● 75 sources

OpenAI's strategic head argued the US should regulate open-weight AI models to protect frontier labs' business models, sparking debate over whether the Trump administration should ban advanced Chinese models like Kimi K3. Chinese lab Moonshot's Kimi K3 is the largest open-weight large language model currently available. Restricting open models would concentrate AI power among a few US companies and potentially harm US innovation leadership, while chip export controls could more effectively slow Chinese AI development without limiting open-source access.

Safety and alignment in an era of long-horizon models

OpenAI 3 months ago 32 ● 50 sources

OpenAI documented safety challenges and failures discovered while deploying long-horizon AI models that can operate for extended periods, and described safeguards developed through iterative testing and deployment. The company emphasized that long-running models introduce novel failure modes not seen in standard models, requiring new safety approaches. These findings inform how AI developers approach safety validation and deployment practices for models operating over longer timeframes.

Quoting Sam Altman

Simon Willison's Weblog 3 months ago 49

Sam Altman stated in an October 2022 email to OpenAI's board that the company planned to release a language model with GPT-3-level capabilities that could run on consumer hardware. The target was to release before Stability AI or other competitors did so. Altman believed releasing such a model would make it harder for rival efforts to secure funding and discourage others from releasing similarly powerful models.
