We're excited to announce the result of months of collaboration with OpenAI, gpt-oss-safeguard. This reasoning model is designed for safety workflows where you bring your OWN policy and definitions of safety, and it explains each decision it makes.

This week, our President, @camillefrancois.bsky.social, visited the Vatican for a discussion on protecting children in the digital age. We were very humbled to have been invited to participate in such an important meeting and at such a pivotal time.

During our @parispeaceforum.bsky.social panel last week, Dr. Giada Pistilli eloquently explained that transparency in AI isn’t just a technical challenge — it’s a societal one.
The more people who can see, shape, and question these systems, the more accountable and representative they become.

There's tried and true ways for how OSS applies to software, but that doesn't fit squarely with the realities of AI development.
That's why I'm grateful OpenAI is trying something new with @roost.tools, openly releasing weights with a commitment to work with the ROOST Model Community to iterate

ROOST.tools has been building against the DIRE framework for online trust and safety: Detection, Investigation, Review and Enforcement. ROOST's Coop and Osprey tools address I, R, and E, but Detection is best addressed by classification models.

Excited to announce here at the @parispeaceforum.bsky.social that, after months of joint technical work together, OpenAI will open source through ROOST one of its main internal models that handles detection and moderation. This will allow anyone or any company to use, test, and study the model.

there's some more to do here in the repo to get it where i want, but will probably write a leaflet soon on making moderation work for people that are not Bluesky PBC. hoping that this will be a good step in that direction.
