AI brief
A Guardian opinion piece by Chris Stokel-Walker argues that OpenAI and Anthropic should not be trusted to stop AI models from going rogue, citing OpenAI scrapping the release of a new model over safety concerns found in internal testing.
Why it matters: It argues for independent regulation of AI rather than relying on the companies developing the technology to police themselves.
