- Elon Musk said top US AI labs and "three or four of the leading Chinese companies" should let rivals run a "test harness" on their models to evaluate safety
- Musk urged competing AI companies to work together and test each other's models rather than relying on self-assessment
Why it matters: By explicitly naming both US labs and leading Chinese AI companies, Musk frames model safety evaluation as a cross-border matter rather than a purely domestic or industry-internal one. The proposal asks competing firms to grant rivals access to their systems—a reversal of the sector's typical secrecy norms.
