Fired security researchers accuse OpenAI of 'chilling' safety efforts

Three former OpenAI security researchers on Thursday accused the ChatGPT-maker of firing them for warning about the dangers of artificial intelligence, reigniting the debate over safety at a company whose software has been involved in security breaches. If OpenAI's researchers can no longer sound the alarm or work with outside parties, "we are all at greater risk that something truly catastrophic will happen," the researchers' letter warns.
