三名被解雇的 OpenAI 安全研究员发声,OpenAI 同日给出官方回应
Three fired OpenAI safety researchers speak out as OpenAI responds the same day
这起事件今天补齐了两个此前缺失的部分:当事人本人的公开陈述与公司的正式回应。三位研究员的 X 原帖分别获得 8,124、4,997 与 4,518 赞:@j_asminewang 称上周被解雇,给出的唯一理由是她访问了一位高管的邮件[1];@tomekkorbak 称被安全负责人告知「公司不再信任他」,保安收走工牌并把他送出大楼[2];@balesni 称他们三人写给管理层的信是因为「把安全置于近期商业利益之上」而遭到解雇[3]。同日 OpenAI 官方账号回应:公司在对敏感信息处理方式的调查后与三人解除劳动关系,认为其违反了明确的政策[4]。它要解决的是「安全职能被削弱时如何被外界看见」的问题:双方对同一事实给出的是「越权查看邮件」与「因坚持安全立场」两种叙述,而外部无法取证。对做 Agent 治理的团队,参考价值是把安全岗位的权限、举报渠道与离职争议处理写进制度,避免争议只能靠社交媒体裁决;限制是两方叙述各自成立与否无法从公开信息判断,本条目并列呈现、不作结论。
This story gained the two pieces it was missing: the individuals' own public accounts and the company's formal response. The three researchers' X posts drew 8,124, 4,997 and 4,518 likes: @j_asminewang says she was fired last week and given one reason — accessing an executive's email[1]; @tomekkorbak says the head of safety told him the company no longer trusted him, after which a security guard took his badge and walked him out[2]; and @balesni says the three wrote to leadership and believes they were fired for prioritising safety over near-term commercial interests[3]. The same day OpenAI's official account responded that it parted ways with the three after an investigation into how sensitive information was handled, saying they violated clear policies[4]. It addresses how a weakened safety function becomes visible: the two sides offer “accessed email without authorisation” and “fired for holding a safety line” as accounts of the same facts, and neither can be verified externally. For agent governance teams the reference is to write safety roles' permissions, escalation channels and separation-dispute handling into policy so disputes are not adjudicated on social media; the limit is that neither narrative can be settled from public information, and this entry presents both without concluding.
