OpenAI Partners with Rivals on AI Safety Amid Growing Concerns

OpenAI has been working with rival AI labs Anthropic and Google on safety issues related to AI technology. Chris Lehane, OpenAI's global policy chief, said that the company had been engaging with its rivals for several weeks without raising antitrust concerns.

The collaboration on AI safety is a response to growing concerns about the risks of the technology. Former employees at frontier AI labs have warned about the potential dangers of AI, including its ability to cause harm to humans.

Lehane compared the coordination between companies on safety issues to the airline industry, where companies work together to establish safety standards.
