OpenAI, Google, Anthropic discussing collaboration on AI safety issues

OpenAI, Google, and Anthropic are discussing ways to work together on AI safety concerns, following a proposal by Google DeepMind's leader for a U.S. standards body (a regulatory organization similar to those overseeing the financial industry) with federal oversight. The companies have also agreed that AI developers should slow down how quickly they advance their most powerful models, though OpenAI indicates this voluntary approach would work alongside mandatory government safeguards.
