In a somewhat unexpected move, OpenAI is evolving its company structure -- and not necessarily toward profit. OpenAI LLC is the for-profit arm of the organization that runs products like ChatGPT. OpenAI Inc is the nonprofit arm that owns OpenAI LLC. On Monday, the company announced that OpenAI LLC would transition to a Public Benefit Corporation (PBC), with OpenAI Inc maintaining control as its largest shareholder. Other AI companies, including Anthropic and X.ai, and retail companies like Allbirds and Patagonia, are set up as PBCs.

SWE-Bench (pronounced "swee bench") launched in November 2024 as a way to evaluate an AI model's coding skill. It has since quickly become one of the most popular tests in AI. A SWE-Bench score has become a mainstay of major model releases from OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google--and outside of foundation models, the fine-tuners at AI firms are in constant competition to see who can rise above the pack. Despite all the fervor, this isn't exactly a truthful assessment of which model is "better." Entrants have begun to game the system--which is pushing many others to wonder whether there's a better way to actually measure AI achievement.

Multimodal AI, which can ingest content in non-text formats like audio and images, has leveled up the data that large language models (LLMs) can parse. However, new research from security specialist Enkrypt AI suggests these models are also more susceptible to novel jailbreak techniques. Also: Anthropic finds alarming'emerging trends' in Claude misuse report On Thursday, Enkrypt published findings that two multimodal models from French AI lab Mistral -- Pixtral-Large (25.02) and Pixtral-12b -- are up to 40 times more likely to produce chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear (CBRN) information than competitors when prompted adversarially. The models are also 60 times more likely to generate child sexual exploitation material (CSEM) than competitors, which include OpenAI's GPT-4o and Anthropic's Claude 3.7 Sonnet. Mistral did not respond to ZDNET's request for comment on Enkrypt's findings.
