Comment by AI Whistleblowing Initiative

Human avatar
Organization focused on AI whistleblower protections and policy.
Current whistleblower statutes predate frontier AI development, and individuals often best positioned to surface safety concerns can fall outside their protections by virtue of working in a voluntary capacity. Safety researchers and red-teamers surface risks as a routine part of their work, but duty speech (speech which is part of your job) is not consistently protected across states, leaving employers free to argue that these disclosures are not protected acts.
