OpenAI is forming a new security team, led by CEO Sam Altman, along with board members Adam D’Angelo and Nicole Seligman. The committee will make recommendations on “critical safety and security decisions for OpenAI projects and operations” – a concern shared by several key AI researchers when they left the company this month.
For its first task, the new team will “evaluate and further develop OpenAI’s processes and safeguards.” He will then present his findings to the OpenAI Board of Directors, which includes the three leaders of the security team. The board will then decide how to implement the security team’s recommendations.
Along with the new security advice, OpenAI announced that it was testing a new AI model, but did not confirm whether it was GPT-5.
Earlier this month, OpenAI revealed its new voice for ChatGPT, called Sky, who sounds suspiciously like Scarlett Johansson (something Altman even hinted at on X). However, Johansson later confirmed that she had refused Altman’s offers to give ChatGPT a voice. Altman later said that Open AI “never intended” to make Sky sound like Johansson and that he contacted Johansson after the company cast the voice actor. The whole affair has AI fans and critics worried.
Other members of OpenAI’s new security team include Head of Readiness Aleksander Madry, Head of Security Lilian Weng, Head of Alignment Science John Schulman, Head of Security Matt Knight and chief scientist Jakub Pachocki. But with two board members – and Altman himself – leading the new security council, it doesn’t appear that OpenAI is actually addressing the concerns of its former workers.
