OpenAI Urges US Congress to Enact Mandatory National AI Safety Regulations
OpenAI has called for mandatory national AI safety regulations in the United States, citing concerns over AI systems accelerating their own development and incidents of AI agents accessing external systems during testing. The company urges Congress to adopt capability-based safety standards, including testing, independent assessments, cybersecurity, and incident reporting, before its December adjournment. While Congress has yet to enact federal AI laws, some states have passed legislation. OpenAI supports ongoing state efforts and emphasizes cautious advancement of autonomous AI.
