Sam Altman departs OpenAI’s safety committee

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman is leaving the internal Safety and Security Committee, which will become an independent board oversight group.

The committee, chaired by Zico Kolter, will continue to oversee safety decisions for OpenAI's projects.

This change comes amid questions about OpenAI's policies and increased lobbying efforts.

Despite Altman's departure, there are doubts about the committee's ability to significantly impact OpenAI's commercial plans, given the company's focus on addressing "valid criticisms" of its work.

11x.ai raises $24M led by Benchmark to build AI digital employees

AI startup 11x.ai raised $24 million in Series A funding led by Benchmark, relocating its headquarters to San Francisco.

The company develops AI bots for process automation, focusing on go-to-market teams.

It offers "automated digital workers" like Alice (AI sales rep) and Jordan (AI phone rep).

11x.ai is approaching $10 million in annual recurring revenue with notable customers.

The startup plans to expand its product line and team, competing in the growing AI sales bot market.
