Meta, Google, and OpenAI are speeding up AI products. But experts worry safety is being ignored for faster rollouts.
🚨 Breaking News:
OpenAI admitted launching a model that “felt off.” Meta and Google are also deprioritizing AI safety to push faster products.
⚡Wire Simplified –
Experts say AI leaders are rushing products without enough testing.
Meta shifted focus from core AI research to GenAI tools.
Google’s Sergey Brin told teams to stop making “nanny products.”
OpenAI released a model despite red flags—later admitted it was a mistake.
Safety teams feel sidelined as companies chase market share.
✔️Straight to the Point:
Big Tech wants AI out fast, but safety’s taking a back seat. Experts warn: better AI can also mean bigger risks.
