OpenAI safety report writer resigns, says its culture is broken
Robinson led the writing of safety reports for OpenAI's major product launches over three-and-a-half years at the company. He resigned, saying OpenAI's culture is broken. He argued frontier AI companies need to start operating "like nuclear-power plants or busy airports" because he never encountered a colleague with experience making nuclear reactors run without melting down or helping the financial system grow without collapsing.
NoteRobinson's comparison points at finance as one of the fields whose safety discipline AI labs still lack, worth remembering as banks let agents take on more autonomy over money and customer data on the strength of a lab's own safety claims.
