Why it matters

Swap compute for data on the scaling curve and the same money buys a better model, which is why Ari Morcos calls data quality the compute multiplier and the most underinvested part of training.

My takeaway: Data Quality Is the Compute Multiplier — Ari Morcos, DatologyAI is a model-evaluation signal. The practical read is to tie capability claims to evidence, launch criteria, and regression tests rather than relying on demos or benchmark headlines.

OpenAI’s Frontier Governance Framework

OpenAI's 22-page Frontier Governance Framework maps its frontier-model processes to California's Transparency in Frontier AI Act and the EU AI Act's general-purpose AI code. It documents lifecycle risk assessment, cyber-offense and other risk tiers, mitigation and residual-risk decisions, critical-incident handling, security risk management, model reporting, external review, responsibility allocation, and change control.

A five-step roadmap to closing the AI evaluation gap

The roadmap addresses evaluation results that overstate real-world performance or fail to transfer across deployment contexts. Its five steps balance standardized and local tests, evaluate throughout the lifecycle, build qualified assurance and communication capacity, tailor tests to each value-chain actor and technology, and use a coordinated, trusted process for updating methods.
