00:02OpenAI is bringing back the former head of preparedness, Alexander Madri, months after
00:07his departure, as he warns that rapid advances in artificial intelligence have made safety
00:11and security more urgent priorities. Madri announced his return on X, saying AI progress
00:16has entered a new phase requiring greater attention to the risks of increasingly capable systems.
00:21He will work alongside chief scientist Jakub Pachocki to address those challenges.
00:25Madri left OpenAI in May to explore how AI could transform business operations and economic
00:31activity. Madri joined OpenAI in 2024 as head of preparedness, overseeing risks from advanced
00:37AI models before moving to AI reasoning. His return comes amid leadership changes and a
00:42major expansion of OpenAI's computing infrastructure. CEO Sam Altman has projected trillions of dollars
00:48in infrastructure spending to support more advanced AI models.
