OpenAI's Trust and Safety Leader Resigns, Prompting Devs to Focus on ChatGPT Fixes

Dave Willner, the head of trust and safety at OpenAI, has announced his departure from the company after a year and a half in the role. Willner, who played a key role in operationalizing OpenAI's commitment to safe and responsible AI use, plans to transition to an advisory role and spend more time with his family. OpenAI is now seeking a replacement, and CTO Mira Murati will manage the team on an interim basis. Willner's departure comes at a critical time for AI, as questions about regulation and mitigating harmful impacts continue to arise.
