Summary from the posting
The Safety Training research team aims to fundamentally advance our capabilities for precisely implementing safe behavior in AI models, and to leverage these advances to make OpenAI’s deployed models safe and beneficial. This requires a breadth of new ML research to address the growing set of safety challenges as AI becomes more powerful and used in more settings. Key focus areas include how to train nuanced safety behaviors, how to make the model robust to bad actors, how to address privacy and security risks, and how to make the model trustworthy in safety-critical situations.
