"We believe that superintelligence could arrive within the decade. Solving the technical problems around superintelligence alignment is one of the most important tasks of our time. We've established a Superalignment team to focus on this challenge, committing 20% of our compute to solving it.Excerpt from OpenAI's Safety Standards
REGULATORY LANDSCAPE: Long-term AI alignment research of the type described here is not currently subject to specific mandatory regulatory frameworks in most jurisdictions, though it intersects with the EU AI Act's requirements for systemic risk …
