OpenAI憲章

この文書は、OpenAIの社内外の多くの人々からのフィードバックを含め、私たちが過去2年間に洗練させてきた戦略を反映したものです。AGIが実現するまでのスケジュールはまだ不確定ですが、私たちの憲章は、AGIの発展を通じて人類の最善の利益のために行動する指針となるものです。

OpenAIの使命は、汎用人工知能（AGI）、つまり経済的に最も価値のある仕事において人間を凌駕する高度に自律的なシステムが、全人類に利益をもたらすようにすることです。私たちは、安全で有益なAGIを直接構築するよう努力しますが、もし私たちの仕事によって、他の人々がこのような結果を達成するのを助けるのであれば、私たちの使命は達成されたと考えられるでしょう。そのために、私たちは以下の原則を約束します。

Broadly distributed benefits

We commit to use any influence we obtain over AGI’s deployment to ensure it is used for the benefit of all, and to avoid enabling uses of AI or AGI that harm humanity or unduly concentrate power.

Our primary fiduciary duty is to humanity. We anticipate needing to marshal substantial resources to fulfill our mission, but will always diligently act to minimize conflicts of interest among our employees and stakeholders that could compromise broad benefit.

Long-term safety

We are committed to doing the research required to make AGI safe, and to driving the broad adoption of such research across the AI community.

We are concerned about late-stage AGI development becoming a competitive race without time for adequate safety precautions. Therefore, if a value-aligned, safety-conscious project comes close to building AGI before we do, we commit to stop competing with and start assisting this project. We will work out specifics in case-by-case agreements, but a typical triggering condition might be “a better-than-even chance of success in the next two years.”

Technical leadership

To be effective at addressing AGI’s impact on society, OpenAI must be on the cutting edge of AI capabilities—policy and safety advocacy alone would be insufficient.

We believe that AI will have broad societal impact before AGI, and we’ll strive to lead in those areas that are directly aligned with our mission and expertise.

Cooperative orientation

We will actively cooperate with other research and policy institutions; we seek to create a global community working together to address AGI’s global challenges.

We are committed to providing public goods that help society navigate the path to AGI. Today this includes publishing most of our AI research, but we expect that safety and security concerns will reduce our traditional publishing in the future, while increasing the importance of sharing safety, policy, and standards research.
