Miles Brundage, former OpenAI safety executive, waded into a safety debate, criticizing those who frame 'sloppiness' as a virtue while OpenAI faces scrutiny. He fired back at the 'ship the tech and let bad things happen' argument by pointing to Anthropic's continued deployment of Claude despite regular misuse by actors in Iran, North Korea and China for ransomware and authoritarian propaganda — a window into the labs' responsibility-vs-deployment rift.
