OpenAI forms Safety and Security Committee under CEO Sam Altman after AI safety team dissolution.

OpenAI has established a new Safety and Security Committee to advise the board on critical decisions, as it begins training its "next frontier model" after recent dissolution of a team focused on AI safety. The committee, led by CEO Sam Altman and board members Bret Taylor, Adam D'Angelo and Nicole Seligman, will advise on safety and security decisions for the company's projects and operations. This move follows the high-profile exit of OpenAI executive Jan Leike, who criticized the company's underinvestment in AI safety work.
