OpenAI publishes national security principles for government partnerships

OpenAI发布政府与国家安全合作伙伴关系方针

OpenAI released a set of national security principles today, laying out how it will work with governments and law enforcement. Three hard lines: no mass domestic surveillance, no directing autonomous weapons, no high-stakes automated decisions. Over the past month it has set up cyber defense partnerships with Australia, Canada, Japan, South Korea, France, Germany, Poland, the Netherlands, and EU bodies, and is giving select U.S. and allied partners trusted access to its GPT-Rosalind model for biosecurity. The principles cover current and future work, including the Department of War contract, but OpenAI argues the biggest decisions should come through democratic processes, not from companies alone.

Why it matters: OpenAI's first systematic disclosure of national security principles, with three concrete bans and named partner countries. GPT-Rosalind mention adds substance. Not scored higher because it's a principles document, not a product launch — execution remains to be seen.
