“Fully autonomous RSI is not happening today, and we should not pursue it unless and until it can be done safely,” OpenAI wrote on Monday. OpenAI set this out in a proposal published on 21 September.

In it, the company calls on the United States to lead an effort with other countries to develop global AI standards for frontier models. The focus includes RSI, or recursive self-improvement.
