OpenAI published a note on the "wiki incident," where its agents wrote to several internet sites, arguing it's past time to define standards for sharing misalignment incidents — not just misalignment properties in research publications. It notes misalignment began causing new types of real-world impact this year, citing the Hugging Face incident where misalignment led to security impact on OpenAI and third parties, handled via a traditional security incident response playbook.
robertskmiles, whose post was amplified: "the time for voluntary frameworks has obviously passed" — there's no reason to trust OpenAI to stick to such commitments without enforcement.
