“OpenAI and Meta are set to roll out their next batch of AI models imminently. Yet neither has granted access to the U.K.’s AI Safety Institute to do pre-release testing, according to four people close to the matter.”
“Leading AI firm Anthropic, which rolled out its latest batch of models in March, has yet to allow the U.K.institute to test its models pre-release, though co-founder Jack Clark told POLITICO it is working with the body on how pre-deployment testing by governments might work.
“Pre-deployment testing is a nice idea but very difficult to implement,” said Clark.”
I hadn’t, but I just did and nothing in the article seems to be responsive to what I wrote.
Amusingly, not a single news source I found reporting on the subject has managed to link to the “plan” that the involved parties (countries, companies, etc) agreed to.
Nothing in that summary affirmatively indicates that companies agreed to submit their future models to pre-deployment testing by the UK AISI. One might even say that it seems carefully worded to avoid explicitly pinning the companies down like that.
