OpenAI has changed its previous position and now advocates for the implementation of mandatory national rules for artificial intelligence safety. This change of course represents a significant shift in the company's stance, which had previously been less favorable toward mandatory regulation of the sector.
OpenAI's intervention comes one week after the company launched GPT-6 Astra, described as the most advanced model developed to date. The release of this new AI model was preceded by a delay that the company justified with cybersecurity-related reasons.
The advocacy for mandatory rules comes in a context of growing debate about the need for regulation of artificial intelligence, especially following the development of increasingly powerful and sophisticated models. OpenAI now states that it considers it essential to establish national safety standards to mitigate risks associated with the technology.
