Following a series of safety testing and red-teaming announcements from companies like OpenAI and Anthropic, AI safety experts argue that while these incidents are not fake hype, the communication strategy is flawed.
Experts note that current disclosures—such as simply announcing partnerships with organizations like Hugging Face—lack substantive details and often come across as marketing stunts rather than serious safety warnings. To genuinely convince skeptics, AI companies need to find better ways to communicate and be transparent about their safety incidents.
