Nvidia and Microsoft launch an open AI security alliance without OpenAI, Google, or Anthropic

• Nvidia says it is teaming up with Microsoft, SpaceX, IBM, and others to build and share open-source AI security tools.
• The new Open Secure AI Alliance argues that open tools are needed to defend against attacks from frontier models.
• The report frames the effort as a response to rising concerns about advanced AI safety, including containment failures, and mentions a reported case where Hugging Face had to rely on a Chinese open-weight model because top US models were too tightly guarded to be useful.
• The alliance is meant to help with practical defense, not just discussion, around how frontier systems are attacked and contained.
