The AI safety team at OpenAI is facing a “mass exodus” with key members resigning due to a loss of faith in the company’s leadership. The departures of Ilya Sutskever and Jan Leike, leaders of the superalignment team, have raised concerns about the future of AI safety at OpenAI.
What Happened: Microsoft Corp.-backed (NASDAQ:MSFT) OpenAI, the company behind ChatGPT, has seen a series of resignations from its AI safety team. The departures of Sutskever and Leike, who were key figures in ensuring AI alignment with human goals, have sparked concerns about the company’s future in AI safety.
At least five other safety-focused employees have also left since November when OpenAI’s board attempted to dismiss CEO Sam Altman. The failed ousting led to a loss of trust in Altman among safety-focused employees, according to sources within the company, reported Vox.
“It’s a process of trust collapsing bit by bit, like dominoes falling one by one,” said an anonymous source, according to the report.
