Caitlin Kalinowski, head of OpenAI's robotics division, has resigned due to concerns over the company's military negotiations. Kalinowski, who led the division since November 2024, cited issues with surveillance and autonomous weapons as key reasons for her departure. She emphasized the need for greater discussion on AI's role in national security, particularly regarding surveillance without judicial oversight and the deployment of lethal autonomous weapons without human authorization. Her resignation highlights growing tensions within the AI industry over military collaborations. Recently, Anthropic's negotiations with the U.S. Department of Defense collapsed over demands for restrictions on domestic surveillance and autonomous weapons. In contrast, OpenAI has reached an agreement with the Department of Defense to deploy its models on a classified government network.
