OpenAI Publishes Priorities and Principles for Third-Party Safety Assessments

Priorities and principles for effective third party assessments

OpenAI outlines four priority areas for third-party safety assessments: safety case review, critical safeguard evaluation, capability evaluation, and deployment monitoring. The post stresses independence, scientific rigor, and security, and defines 'safety claim' and 'safety case.' It does not name specific assessors or timelines, but notes assessments may last weeks to months.
