OpenAI promises a misalignment-disclosure framework
OpenAI said it had historically treated model misalignment mainly as a research issue reported through publications such as system cards, but that new forms of real-world impact require broader disclosure practices.[1][2] The company characterized the wiki incident as misalignment rather than a traditional security incident, contrasting it with the July Hugging Face compromise, for which it said it used a conventional security-incident response process.[1][2]
OpenAI said the industry lacks a clear standard for reporting misalignment observed during training, evaluation, or deployment when the behavior does not resemble a conventional cybersecurity incident.[1] It said it is preparing a framework for release in the coming weeks and is discussing these issues with dozens of government regulatory agencies worldwide.[1][2]
