Former researchers at OpenAI have disputed the stated reason for their dismissal, saying they were let go for prioritising safety concerns.

The researchers’ account conflicts with that of the artificial intelligence company, which says the dismissals followed the mishandling of sensitive information.

No further details about the individuals involved, the information concerned or the specific safety issues raised are provided in the supplied material. The competing explanations leave the circumstances of the dismissals disputed.
