OpenAI outlines steps to boost safety measures in response to Canada school shooting

OpenAI said on Thursday it will set up a direct point of contact with Canadian law enforcement ‌and improve detection ⁠of ⁠repeat violators of its “violent activities” policy to boost safety protocols in the wake of a recent school shooting.

The ChatGPT maker detailed the ​steps in a letter to Canada’s minister in charge of artificial intelligence, Evan Solomon.

Ann O’Leary, OpenAI’s vice president of global ​policy, wrote the letter after Canadian ministers this week urged the ChatGPT maker to boost its safety protocols quickly and warned Ottawa would effect change through legislation if the company did not.
