Sam Altman, head of OpenAI, has said that with the development of new technologies, some AI-related accidents are inevitable, so the AI ​​industry must establish a system to quickly learn from each incident.

Speaking at a Salesforce conference, Sam Altman said the artificial intelligence industry should adopt accident reporting and thorough investigation systems modeled after the US Federal Aviation Administration and the National Transportation Safety Board.

According to him, the lessons learned by investigating every accident in the aviation sector were incorporated back into the system, which improved safety standards.

Sam Altman has said that accidents will happen but it is important to learn as much as possible from each incident and take immediate action.

It should be noted that this statement by Sam Altman comes after the growing criticism of the leading artificial intelligence companies.

Recall that former Anthropic researcher Jacob Coxon has accused major artificial intelligence companies of being in the race for the most powerful self-improving artificial intelligence and putting human lives at risk.

Artificial intelligence security experts have also expressed concern that in the future such technology may gain the ability to evade human surveillance or increase the likelihood of cyber and biological attacks.

Instead of dismissing these concerns, Sam Altman said that accidents related to artificial intelligence losing control and the concentration of power in the hands of a few large companies are real concerns.

He stressed that as AI capabilities increase, protection, surveillance and human values ​​must also be at the fore, and if an organization cannot maintain this balance, it should slow down its progress.

According to international media reports, these latest statements by AI researchers and experts came at a time when the Trump administration is prioritizing US superiority over China over strict regulations in the field of artificial intelligence.

David Sachs, the president’s adviser on science and technology, has responded to calls from Altman and Anthropic chief Dario Amodei to limit the pace of artificial intelligence development, saying that companies should move forward, make their own decisions and not give the impression that they need someone else’s permission.
