Google, OpenAI, Microsoft, amazon, Nvidia, Intel and other big names in ai are teaming up to form the Coalition for Safe ai (CoSAI), a report says Announcement on ThursdayThe initiative aims to address a “fragmented ai safety landscape” by providing access to open source methodologies, frameworks and tools.
Other companies joining CoSAI include IBM, PayPal, Cisco, and Anthropic. CoSAI will exist within the Organization for the Advancement of Structured Information Standards (OASIS), a nonprofit group that promotes the development of open standards. CoSAI will work on three goals to start: developing best practices for ai security; addressing challenges in ai; and protecting ai applications.
“We’ve been using ai for many years and see the potential it holds for defenders, but we also recognize its opportunities for adversaries,” said Heather Adkins, Google’s vice president of security, in a statement. “CoSAI will help organizations, large and small, integrate ai safely and responsibly, helping them reap its benefits and mitigate the risks.”
