Frontier AI Leaders Google, OpenAI, and Anthropic Launch Joint Safety Standards Group
The proposed group would set safety standards, oversee third-party testing and define auditor qualifications as AI firms face rising scrutiny.
OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google are reportedly planning to launch a self-regulatory organization called the Standards Authority for Frontier AI by early 2027, according to The Information.
The proposed organization would focus on supporting third-party testing of models before deployment and establishing protocols for how AI developers should report security incidents.
Potential leaders under consideration include Sriram Krishnan, a top policy adviser in the Trump administration, alongside former U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice and entrepreneur David Friedberg.
Although industry-led, the partnership idea has stalled within the Trump administration after the White House required the companies to find industry consensus first.
Current plans suggest SAFA may operate independently while discussing potential collaboration with the Center for AI Standards and Innovation to qualify independent auditors.
