What is changing?
OpenAI and Poland’s NASK National Research Institute signed an agreement on October 23 to explore cooperation in AI safety, cybersecurity and technical research.
The work will bring OpenAI together with NASK’s AI Safety Research Center, which serves as Poland’s Artificial Intelligence Safety Institute. The organizations plan to study methods for evaluating increasingly capable models, identifying potential vulnerabilities and strengthening safeguards.
The announcement does not introduce a new product or general-access change. The partnership aims to develop shared technical approaches for comparing model capabilities, assessing risks, testing safeguards and reporting incidents.
OpenAI also said CERT Polska, which operates within NASK, previously used OpenAI models through Daybreak to discover six vulnerabilities in MikroTik RouterOS. The vendor released fixes that CERT Polska confirmed prevented the observed attacks.
