OpenAI proposes an evolved security infrastructure to protect advanced AI systems. Daily, we face the challenge of safeguarding these systems against cybercriminals. The goal is to build a reliable digital wall that protects both personal and business data.
The challenges of AI security
AI technology is a significant target for hackers due to its strategic value. Model weights, the output of the AI training process, contain the core power of AI systems. While the online availability of these weights is essential for applications like ChatGPT, it also makes them vulnerable to attacks.
Security as a Team Effort
The security of advanced AI requires innovation comparable to the developments that followed the invention of the automobile and the internet. OpenAI promotes this innovation through collaboration and transparency, participation in industry initiatives, and adherence to safety obligations. This approach helps us prepare for increasingly intense threats.
Proposed safety measures
We share six safety measures that complement existing cybersecurity practices to enhance the security of advanced AI:
1. Trusted computer technology for AI accelerators
2. Guarantees for network and tenant insulation
3. Innovation in Operational and Physical Security of Data Centers
4. AI-specific audit and compliance programs
5. AI for Cyber Defense
6. Resilience, redundancy, and research
Future-oriented investments
Implementing these measures requires intensive research and development. We encourage the AI and security communities to collaborate with us and participate in our Cybersecurity Grant Program. Together, we can harness the power of AI to make our digital world safer.
By following these steps, companies and organizations can effectively protect their AI systems against both current and future threats. This ensures a safer future for everyone.
