“We’re going to think about how do we work with countries to set standards as it relates to the risks of synthetic content, the risks of AI being used maliciously by malicious actors," Raimondo said in an interview."Because if we keep a lid on the risks, it’s incredible to think about what we could achieve.”, the San Francisco meetings are designed as a technical collaboration on safety measures ahead of a broader AI summit set for February in Paris.
San Francisco-based OpenAI, maker of ChatGPT, said last week that before releasing its latest model, called o1, it granted early access to the U.S. and UK national AI safety institutes. The new product goes beyond the company's famous chatbot in being able to “perform complex reasoning” and produce a"long internal chain of thought" when answering a query, and poses a “medium risk” in the category of weapons of mass destruction, the company has said.
“That is the right model," Raimondo said. “That being said, right now, it’s all voluntary. I think we probably need to move beyond a voluntary system. And we need Congress to take action.”
