Alphabet’s Google, OpenAI, and Anthropic have held private discussions since July to establish an industry-led AI safety body. These talks predated public calls from industry leaders for an AI development slowdown.
The proposed organization aims to create common protocols for technical testing and auditing. It will also develop risk assessment standards for advanced AI models before their public release.
While the competitors collaborate on safety, they maintain differing views on regulatory oversight. The group remains divided on the balance between government involvement and industry self-regulation.
