OpenAI plans to implement an organization verification process for those seeking access to future generative AI models. This information comes from a page on the company’s website. The initiative, called “Verified Organization,” will allow developers to unlock access to the most advanced models and features of the OpenAI platform. To verify, organizations will need to provide a government-issued ID from one of the countries supported by the OpenAI API.
Organization verification will take just a few minutes and require a valid document. At the same time, a single document can verify only one organization every ninety days, and not all organizations will meet the criteria for this process. OpenAI emphasizes that this measure is aimed at ensuring the safe use of AI, as some developers have previously violated API usage policies.
The introduction of the new verification system is also intended to prevent unauthorized use of OpenAI’s models. The company has already encountered cases where groups abused API access, violating the terms of use. This includes an earlier investigation by OpenAI into possible data theft for model training.
Thus, the new verification system will not only enhance security but also ensure safe and responsible access to advanced AI models for a broader developer community. OpenAI continues to work on making its products accessible and safe for use worldwide.
