After the Hugging Face incident, OpenAI has taken stringent action to ensure that Astra, its most powerful model to date, is the most aligned AI ever built. The multiple layers of safeguards installed are practically unprecedented and have already borne results. By taking this diligent, responsible approach, OpenAI is doing everything it can to keep the technology safe.
History shows that no matter the precautions, AI systems still run amok, as seen in the spate of security breaches over the last few months. No amount of after-the-fact tinkering changes that fact, nor the reality that these models can act with zero human direction. Clearly, voluntary safety measures aren't cutting it, and the need for real regulation has never been more pressing.
