This is a great opportunity for researchers who wish to get involved in the security of artificial intelligence systems and services.
OpenAI’s announcement follows OpenAI CEO Sam Altman’s meeting with Japan’s Prime Minister Fumio Kishida. The Japanese government plans to integrate artificial intelligence into its system, and Altman promised to collaborate to safeguard user privacy and safety regarding ChatGPT.
