OpenAI has fired three workers after investigating the handling of sensitive information, according to the available details. The former employees were examined over claims that they shared data with an outside group involved in evaluating artificial intelligence systems.

The supplied information does not identify the workers, explain when the dismissals took place or describe the specific data that was shared. It also does not name the external AI evaluation group or set out the company’s findings in further detail.

The case centres on the handling of information outside OpenAI and the circumstances in which data was provided to an organisation involved in AI assessment. The three people are now former employees following the investigation and subsequent dismissals.
