Altman affirmed Madrid's work in a tweet, saying that he was "working on a new and very important research project." This transfer not only reflects the company's recognition of Madrid's capabilities, but also highlights OpenAI's emphasis on research in the field of artificial intelligence reasoning.
During their transfer to Madrid, OpenAI executives Joaquin Quinonero Candela and Lilian Weng will jointly take over the Preparedness team, which is responsible for identifying new risks in cutting-edge models and conducting safety assessments to reduce the "catastrophic risks" that artificial intelligence may bring.
It is worth noting that despite the shift in Madrid's work focus, OpenAI officials said that he will continue to be involved in core AI safety work. Madrid not only holds an important position in OpenAI, but is also the director of the MIT Center for Deployable Machine Learning and the faculty co-leader of the MIT Artificial Intelligence Policy Forum. His rich experience and expertise are expected to bring new breakthroughs to OpenAI's AI reasoning research.
The reorganization reflects that OpenAI is actively promoting the development of artificial intelligence reasoning capabilities while maintaining AI safety research. Industry insiders generally believe that this strategic adjustment will help OpenAI maintain its leading position in the highly competitive field of artificial intelligence.
