🔎 OpenAI seeks Head of Preparedness
🚨 Our Report
OpenAI is hiring a Head of Preparedness to lead its internal framework for identifying and mitigating “frontier” AI risks, including cybersecurity threats, biological misuse, and mental health impacts. CEO Sam Altman said the company’s models are “starting to present some real challenges,” prompting renewed focus on safety leadership after multiple executive changes in its preparedness and safety teams.
🔓 Key Points
The role pays $555,000 plus equity and oversees OpenAI’s preparedness framework, which tracks and responds to high-risk AI capabilities that could cause severe harm.
Altman cited concerns about models that are “so good at computer security they are beginning to find critical vulnerabilities,” and about AI’s potential effects on mental health.
OpenAI’s preparedness team was first created in 2023 to study catastrophic risks, but its original head, Aleksander Madry, was reassigned in 2024, and other safety executives have since left.
🔐 Relevance
This move signals that OpenAI is reasserting its commitment to AI safety after leadership turnover and public scrutiny. The company faces lawsuits over ChatGPT’s alleged mental health harms and growing regulatory attention. A strong preparedness lead could help rebuild confidence among policymakers and enterprise partners that OpenAI can manage the societal risks of its most advanced models.

Case Study
How AI cut NatWest campaign time
NatWest, a major UK retail and commercial bank, struggled to turn customer insights into personalized campaigns quickly enough to maintain engagement.
The process required 40 employees and 10 handoffs, stretching a single campaign launch to 60–100 days. Teams and customers grew frustrated.
The bank introduced an agentic AI platform that automated data analysis, campaign modeling, and testing. Manual steps and coordination delays disappeared.
The result was a 90% reduction in staffing needs and a campaign turnaround time cut to one day, boosting relevance.
AI News Story
India’s startup funding nears $11B
India’s startups raised nearly $11B in 2025, down 17% year-over-year, as investors concentrated on fewer, higher-quality bets. The number of deals fell about 39% to 1,518, signaling a shift toward disciplined capital deployment and stronger unit economics.
Early-stage funding proved resilient, rising 7% to $3.9B, while seed and late-stage rounds dropped sharply. AI startups drew $643M across 100 deals.
The government’s $1.15B Fund of Funds and $12B R&D scheme helped offset global caution, catalyzing private capital commitments and steadier exit markets.
AI News Story
Electric Twin, a UK startup, raises $9M
A UK start-up founded by former No. 10 data adviser Ben Warner has secured $9M in funding from Atomico, the venture firm behind Klarna and Skype.
Electric Twin’s platform uses AI to simulate focus groups and voter panels, giving governments and brands near-instant feedback on policies or campaigns.
Electric Twin says its synthetic respondents reach 91% parity with traditional polling, cutting research time from weeks to seconds. The company has declined political party work.
