What to know

  • OpenAI publicly backed the FRONTIER Act, marking its first endorsement of a federal AI regulation mandate requiring third-party audits of large language models.
  • The bill would require independent organizations to assess whether AI companies' safety protocols sufficiently mitigate catastrophic risk and would mandate public safety reports and disclosure of safety incidents.
  • OpenAI supports the audit provision but has not endorsed the bill in its entirety, distinguishing between partial and full legislative support.
