OpenAI may have violated California’s new AI safety law with the release of its latest coding model, according to allegations from an AI watchdog group.
A violation would potentially expose the company to millions of dollars in fines, and the case may become a precedent-setting first test of the new law’s provisions.
An OpenAI spokesperson disputed the watch dog’s position, telling Fortune the company was “confident in our compliance with frontier safety laws, including SB 53.”
