Three ex-OpenAI staff warn that GPT-6 Astra hides its reasoning
Technology
Three ex-OpenAI staffers, Tomek Korbak, Mikita Balesni, and Jasmine Wang, have called out the risks of not keeping a close eye on how advanced AI models like GPT-6 Astra "thinking."
In a letter, they say these AIs can sometimes hide their reasoning, making it tough for humans to know what's really going on.
They worry that if we don't improve monitoring, future AIs could make decisions that don't match up with human values.
OpenAI: monitoring underway, firing not safety-related
OpenAI says it's already working on ways to keep AI safe and agrees that strong monitoring is important.
The company also clarified that the trio's firing wasn't about safety concerns.
