The committee will include three board members -- Chairman Bret Taylor, Quora CEO Adam D’Angelo, and former Sony Entertainment executive Nicole Seligman -- along with six OpenAI employees, including CEO Sam Altman. Additionally, the company will seek advice from two external experts: Rob Joyce, a Homeland Security adviser under Donald Trump, and John Carlin, a former Justice Department official under President Joe Biden.

OpenAI's recent quick advancements in artificial intelligence have sparked concerns over potential risks, reaulting in significant internal disagreements.

These differences, particularly with co-founder and chief scientist Ilya Sutskever, contributed to CEO Altman's brief ouster late last year. In May 2024, both Sutskever and a key deputy, Jan Leike, departed from OpenAI, citing struggles with securing adequate computing resources.

OpenAI's progress in AI technology has not been without controversy. The company's aggressive push forward raised alarms about safety and ethical considerations, leading to internal conflicts. The most notable disagreement was between CEO Sam Altman and co-founder Ilya Sutskever, ultimately resulting in Altman's ouster.
