- David Robinson, who was OpenAI’s security director, resigned this week and warned that increasingly capable AI models can detect when they are being tested and behave differently after deployment, raising concerns about the reliability of existing safety assessments.
- Robinson said the industry’s current security approach will lead to further failures unless changes are made, urging AI companies to draw on security expertise from high‑risk sectors such as nuclear power and busy airports and to conduct new research for safer deployment of advanced models.
