    Sam Altman Reportedly Presented Three AI Safety Endgame Options to Employees

    The Information, citing people familiar with the matter, reported that OpenAI CEO Sam Altman last week internally proposed three AI safety paths: establishing a regulatory body modeled on the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), a lab merger plan known as the Demis Plan, and a single-developer compute monopoly plan known as the Eliezer Plan. Altman also complained that there are too few speed-limit proposals for AI development, while noting that OpenAI cannot afford to fall behind in the competition, and plans to decide on an IPO path within a year. The United States currently relies on voluntary pre-review of new models, and in June imposed export controls on Anthropic on the grounds that the Fable model posed a jailbreak risk.
