Three BADGE RETURNED Envelopes Must Sit Overnight After OpenAI Safety Exit
Three BADGE RETURNED envelopes must sit overnight after OpenAI parted with three safety-team members for mishandling sensitive information outside procedures.
SAN FRANCISCO - The Office of Sensitive Packets will not seat a frontier safety-staff filing until three manila envelopes stamped BADGE RETURNED sit overnight in the SENSITIVE drawer and the cover sheet carries a MISHANDLED stamp.
Packets without all three envelopes go back as notes. "The envelopes stay in the drawer overnight and the cover sheet takes the stamp before the filing seats," a clerk at the office said.
OpenAI said Friday it had parted ways with three members of its safety team after they violated company policies on accessing and handling sensitive company information. The company said an investigation confirmed the individuals mishandled sensitive information outside established company procedures.
A mail clerk at a second laboratory said the seating notice arrived Friday and was waiting on a cover sheet. The office said the drawer rule applies to the next safety-staff packet.
