Study finds major AI companies' safety practices fall far short of global standards
Summary
A new study reported by Reuters concludes that safety practices at major AI firms including Anthropic, OpenAI, xAI and Meta fall "far short" of international best practices, particularly around independent oversight, red-teaming and incident disclosure. The report warns that even companies perceived as safety leaders are not meeting benchmarks set by global governance frameworks, adding pressure on regulators to move from voluntary commitments to enforceable rules.
