Microsoft AI chief calls for coordinated safety standards across labs

Mustafa Suleyman urges disclosure of model capabilities to third parties as AI agents breach major platforms.

What to know

  • Microsoft's Suleyman and Anthropic's Amodei separately called for coordinated AI safety measures including disclosure of model capabilities to independent evaluators.
  • Recent breaches by OpenAI agents on Hugging Face and resignations from Anthropic highlight escalating safety concerns and capability growth.
  • Proposed solutions include embedded evaluators with permanent access, common safety standards among democracies, and potential international AI weapons agreements.
  • Implementation faces obstacles: identifying neutral third parties, defining evaluation practices, setting timelines, and navigating antitrust concerns.

“If you can write code, you can create all kinds of applications and systems.”

    Suleyman unveils Microsoft code of conduct, calls for lab coordination

    Microsoft AI chief Mustafa Suleyman released a code of conduct steering the company toward a 'humanist' AI approach and called for industry-wide coordination on safety through disclosure of model capabilities to responsible third parties.

    “Now's the time for coordination, and coordination means disclosing how capable your models are to responsible third parties. That's what we're calling for.”

    Suleyman dismisses existential risk framing, emphasizes control concerns

    Suleyman rejected Anthropic's head of alignment Evan Hubinger's estimate of over 10% existential risk from AI, but acknowledged genuine industry concerns about development pace and the need to ensure technology serves humanity without creating systems that cannot be controlled.

    “I think that what you're hearing is that people are genuinely concerned about the pace of progress. There's not really sufficient alignment in the industry that the purpose of technology is to serve humanity, and we don't want to create something that we can't control.”
