    Sam Altman Reportedly Presented Three AI Safety Endgame Options to Employees

    The Information, citing people familiar with the matter, reported that OpenAI CEO Sam Altman last week internally proposed three AI safety paths: establishing a regulatory body modeled on the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), a lab merger plan known as the Demis Plan, and a single-developer compute monopoly plan known as the Eliezer Plan. Altman also complained that there are too few speed-limit proposals for AI development, while noting that OpenAI cannot afford to fall behind in the competition, and plans to decide on an IPO path within a year. The United States currently relies on voluntary pre-review of new models, and in June imposed export controls on Anthropic on the grounds that the Fable model posed a jailbreak risk.

    Spotify Removed Over 50 Million AI Junk and Spam Songs from Recommendations in One Year

    Spotify announced that over the past year it removed more than 50 million songs deemed AI-generated junk content or spam from user recommendations, and adjusted its recommendation system to show more music from human artists. Spotify said its editors likewise will not program content identified as junk or spam, and after the changes, listeners' concerns about such content appearing in recommendations dropped noticeably. Spotify has not yet mandated labeling for all AI tracks, but it introduced an AI Persona badge for artists that use an AI identity and do not represent real people, and it does not recommend music from AI personas; YouTube Music adds labels to AI songs, Deezer allows users to filter AI junk content, and Bandcamp bans AI music entirely.
