Caitlin Kalinowski, the head of robotics at OpenAI, has resigned following the company’s controversial agreement with the Department of Defense. Kalinowski, who joined OpenAI from Meta in 2024, expressed concerns over the lack of guardrails in the deal, particularly regarding issues of surveillance and autonomous weapons.
