OpenAI and Anthropic propose conflicting governance models for stopping dangerous frontier AI systems

According to CSO Online, OpenAI and Anthropic submitted separate proposals to California Governor Gavin Newsom following his September executive order on frontier AI safeguards, taking opposing stances on shutdown authority. Anthropic proposes courts be empowered to suspend dangerous systems; OpenAI argues developers must maintain and use effective shutdown controls. Both companies support independent safety assessments and expanded incident reporting for systems that act beyond intended permissions.
