OpenAI Establishes Safety and Security Committee, Releases Enhanced Model Security Guidelines

OpenAI has established a permanent Safety and Security Committee following months of internal and external pressure around AI safety practices. The committee has published new Model Security Guidelines covering red teaming requirements, catastrophic risk thresholds, and mandatory security reviews before major model releases. OpenAI also announced a formal vulnerability disclosure program for AI-specific security issues, with bounties up to $100,000 for critical AI safety vulnerabilities.
