OpenAI has significantly shortened the safety testing period for its new AI models, raising concerns about the potential risks involved. Previously, the company allocated months to evaluate and address potential dangers associated with its AI systems. However, due to increasing competitive pressures, OpenAI now allows only a few days for safety evaluations. This move has sparked alarm among safety campaigners and testers who fear that the rush could lead to the development of dangerous technologies, including bioweapons. The reduction in testing time underscores the intense competition in the AI industry and the pressures to innovate rapidly.
