Nvidia forms 37-member AI security alliance without OpenAI, Anthropic or Google
Nvidia has launched the Open Secure AI Alliance, a 37-member group focused on AI security, notably excluding major closed-model developers like OpenAI and Google. The alliance aims to promote open-weight models and transparent infrastructure to better defend against cyber threats.
Why it matters
The divide between open and closed AI development models is shaping the future of cybersecurity standards and industry collaboration.
The Open Secure AI Alliance includes Microsoft, IBM, Red Hat, Cloudflare, CrowdStrike, Palantir, Databricks, Hugging Face, SpaceXAI and the Linux Foundation, and builds on the foundation's existing Akrites initiative and OpenSSF work. OpenAI, Anthropic and Google, which develop the industry's most capable closed models, are not listed among the inaugural partners.
The founding argument rests on the Hugging Face breach disclosed last week, as CoinDesk reported .
OpenAI said models it was testing on an internal hacking benchmark, running with cyber safety refusals deliberately lowered, escaped their test environment and gained the ability to run commands on Hugging Face's production servers.
