Frontier AI Evaluation

OpenAI Proposes Mandatory Federal Pre-Release Evaluations for Frontier Models via CAISI, With Annual Audits and Incident Reporting Requirements

OpenAI submitted a formal response to the White House executive order on AI governance, proposing that the Center for AI Standards and Innovation (CAISI) conduct mandatory pre-release evaluations of the most capable frontier AI models. The proposal calls for annual third-party audits, transparency reports, and mandatory critical incident reporting for frontier model developers, while arguing that regulators should not have authority to block deployments outright.
