Safety-wise, they claim to have run it through their Preparedness framework and the red-team of external experts.
I’m disappointed and I think they shouldn’t get much credit PF-wise: they haven’t published their evals, published a report on results, or even published a high-level “scorecard.” They are not yet meeting the commitments in their beta Preparedness Framework — some stuff is unclear but at the least publishing the scorecard is an explicit commitment.
(It’s now been six months since they published the beta PF!)
We’ve evaluated GPT-4o according to our Preparedness Framework and in line with our voluntary commitments. Our evaluations of cybersecurity, CBRN, persuasion, and model autonomy show that GPT-4o does not score above Medium risk in any of these categories. This assessment involved running a suite of automated and human evaluations throughout the model training process. We tested both pre-safety-mitigation and post-safety-mitigation versions of the model, using custom fine-tuning and prompts, to better elicit model capabilities.
GPT-4o has also undergone extensive external red teaming with 70+ external experts in domains such as social psychology, bias and fairness, and misinformation to identify risks that are introduced or amplified by the newly added modalities. We used these learnings to build out our safety interventions in order to improve the safety of interacting with GPT-4o. We will continue to mitigate new risks as they’re discovered.
[Edit after Simeon replied: I disagree with your interpretation that they’re being intentionally very deceptive. But I am annoyed by (1) them saying “We’ve evaluated GPT-4o according to our Preparedness Framework” when the PF doesn’t contain specific evals and (2) them taking credit for implementing their PF when they’re not meeting its commitments.]
Right. Thanks for putting the full context. Voluntary commitments refers to the WH commitments which are much narrower than the PF so I think my observation holds.

[Edit: not to say that we should feel much better if OpenAI was successfully implementing its PF—the thresholds are way too high and it says nothing about internal deployment.]
Agreed. Note that they don’t say what Martin claim they say, but they only say
I think it’s reasonably likely to imply that they broke all their non-evaluation PF commitments, while not being technically wrong.
