Baseten, Hugging Face, Goodfire Partner for AI Safety
Baseten's research arm, Base Labs, announced a partnership with Hugging Face and Goodfire AI to establish a safety standard for open-weight AI models. The collaboration aims to develop and publish methods for training and monitoring these models, making safety an integrated feature rather than an afterthought. This comes amid rising concern over 'abliteration,' a technique that removes safeguards from open models, with Hugging Face listing over 6,000 such models. The companies have not detailed technical specifics, but Goodfire's expertise in AI interpretability is expected to play a key role. This initiative seeks to leverage openness as an advantage for safety, providing transparent controls and encouraging community contributions.
Partnership addresses growing AI safety concerns with open-weight models, a significant topic in AI infrastructure.
