OpenAI, the mother start-up of
ChatGPT, has hailed the coming into force of the European Union
law on artificial intelligence (AI) affirming its commitment to
respect the new set of norms not only because "it is a legal
obligation" but also because the law's objective is in line with
its "mission to develop and distribute secure and safe
artificial intelligence benefiting all humanity".
In a preliminary assessment of the AI Act, Sam Altman's creation
stresses how the new law constitutes an "important legislative
framework" for the development, diffusion and use of AI in
Europe, which guarantees the adoption of reliable technology in
terms of safeguarding human rights, health, and safety and
security.
"We believe in a balanced and scientific approach in which
security measures are integrated into the development process
from the start," says OpenAI's assessment, which recalls the
start-up's work to address "the challenges of AI security",
including the evaluation of models within the sphere of its
Preparedness Framework, its internal and external red-teaming,
its post-deployment monitoring, the Bug Bounty and Cybersecurity
Grant programs, and its contributions to standards of
authenticity.
Lastly, OpenAI is looking to "liaise in close contact" with the
European AI Office and with other authorities during the
implementation of the law, offering its experience to "advance
the law's objectives.
"Over the coming months," OpenAI concludes, "we will continue to
prepare technical documentation and other recommendations for
suppliers and users of our GPAI models (general purpose
artificial intelligence, ed), promoting at the same time the
security an safety of the models that we supply on the European
market and others".
