OpenAI changes deal with US military after backlash
Summary
OpenAI announced changes to its agreement with the US military after facing backlash, including preventing its AI system from being used for domestic surveillance and requiring additional contract modifications before intelligence agencies like the NSA can use it. The company acknowledged the original deal announcement was "opportunistic and sloppy," while concerns remain about how AI systems (which can "hallucinate," or make up false information) are being deployed in military operations and whether adequate human oversight exists.
