The largest AI labs and tech giants have agreed to put their models through independent security and vulnerability testing before they go live. The voluntary agreement was part of a wider deal with the US government on improving AI safety and alignment. It has been signed by seven leading AI companies including Amazon, Anthropic, Inflection, Google, Meta, Microsoft and OpenAI.
The White House agreement holds the AI labs to a set of voluntary AI safety commitments including watermarking generated content and testing output for misinformation risk. As well as tests and security measures, the companies will have to share information on ways to reduce risk and invest in cybersecurity measures.
