OpenAI Publishes Frontier Governance Framework to Align Safety Practices with Emerging Regulations
OpenAI has published a Frontier Governance Framework detailing how its safety and security practices align with emerging legal requirements such as California’s Transparency in Frontier AI Act and the EU AI Act. The document translates aspects of the company’s internal Preparedness Framework into public governance commitments covering risk assessment, mitigation, and reporting for advanced AI systems.
On May 28, 2026, OpenAI published its Frontier Governance Framework, which explains how the company’s safety and security practices align with emerging legal requirements, including California’s Transparency in Frontier AI Act and the EU AI Act’s Code of Practice for General Purpose AI.
The company stated that its internal Preparedness Framework remains the foundation for managing serious risks from advanced AI systems, while the new document applies relevant parts of that approach into a public governance framework focused on specific regulatory obligations. The framework covers risk assessment and mitigation across areas including cyber offense, CBRN risks, harmful manipulation, and loss of control, as well as model reporting, security risk management, incident response, external expert input, and framework updates.
OpenAI expects its approach to continue evolving as model capabilities, evaluations, and regulatory requirements develop, and said it will update the framework accordingly.
