自2024年11月起負責(zé)OpenAI硬件與機器人業(yè)務(wù)團隊的凱特琳·卡利諾夫斯基,已經(jīng)宣布從公司辭職。
她在X和LinkedIn上發(fā)文稱:“我已經(jīng)從OpenAI辭職。我非常重視機器人團隊,也珍視我們共同奮斗的成果。這并非一個輕松的決定。人工智能在國家安全中確實扮演著重要角色,但無論是在缺乏司法監(jiān)督的情況下對美國公民的監(jiān)控,還是未經(jīng)人類授權(quán)使用致命自主武器,都是本應(yīng)得到更審慎考慮的紅線。這是原則問題,而非針對個人。我非常尊重薩姆以及團隊,也為我們共同取得的成就感到自豪。”
她的離職正值一場爭論升級之際:即人工智能公司應(yīng)該在多大程度上支持美國軍方使用這項技術(shù)。近日,由于Anthropic堅持要求對國內(nèi)監(jiān)控和自主武器設(shè)置嚴(yán)格限制,該公司與五角大樓之間的談判破裂。此后不久,OpenAI與美國國防部(Defense Department)達成協(xié)議,計劃在一個機密政府網(wǎng)絡(luò)上部署其人工智能模型。
此舉引發(fā)了部分員工和外界觀察人士的批評,他們認為,在Anthropic拒絕相關(guān)條款后,OpenAI似乎“趁虛而入”。首席執(zhí)行官薩姆·奧爾特曼隨后承認,這項協(xié)議的推出看起來有些“投機”,公司此后也開始進一步明確其人工智能系統(tǒng)在軍事用途方面的限制。
OpenAI的一名發(fā)言人證實了卡利諾夫斯基離職的消息,并在聲明中表示:“我們認為,與五角大樓達成的協(xié)議,為在國家安全領(lǐng)域以負責(zé)任方式使用人工智能提供了一條可行路徑,同時也明確了我們的紅線:人工智能不得用于國內(nèi)監(jiān)控,也不得用于自主武器。我們理解各方對這些問題持有強烈觀點,并將繼續(xù)與員工、政府、民間社會以及全球各界人士展開溝通討論。”
在加入OpenAI之前,卡利諾夫斯基曾經(jīng)在Meta擔(dān)任硬件高管。OpenAI聘請她在研究副總裁阿迪蒂亞·拉梅什領(lǐng)導(dǎo)下負責(zé)硬件業(yè)務(wù)。拉梅什目前主導(dǎo)一項內(nèi)部研究計劃,致力于構(gòu)建能夠模擬物理世界的人工智能系統(tǒng)。卡利諾夫斯基在Meta期間曾經(jīng)花費近兩年半時間負責(zé)開發(fā)“Orion”項目(此前代號為“Nazare項目”),Meta將其稱為“迄今最先進的AR眼鏡”,已經(jīng)于去年9月發(fā)布了原型機。
在負責(zé)Orion項目之前,她在Meta旗下Oculus團隊從事虛擬現(xiàn)實頭顯研發(fā)工作超過九年;更早之前,她還在蘋果(Apple)工作近六年,參與設(shè)計了包括Pro和Air系列在內(nèi)的MacBook產(chǎn)品。(財富中文網(wǎng))

Caitlin Kalinowski, who had been leading hardware and robotics operations teams at OpenAI since November 2024, announced she has left the company.
“I resigned from OpenAI,” she posted on X and LinkedIn. “I care deeply about the Robotics team and the work we built together. This wasn’t an easy call. AI has an important role in national security. But surveillance of Americans without judicial oversight and lethal autonomy without human authorization are lines that deserved more deliberation than they got. This was about principle, not people. I have deep respect for Sam and the team, and I’m proud of what we built together.”
Her departure comes amid an escalating dispute over how far AI companies should go in supporting U.S. military uses of the technology. In recent days, negotiations between the Pentagon and Anthropic collapsed after the company pushed for strict limits on domestic surveillance and autonomous weapons. Soon after, OpenAI reached its own agreement with the Defense Department to deploy its models on a classified government network.
The move drew criticism from some employees and observers who argued that OpenAI appeared to step in after Anthropic refused the terms. CEO Sam Altman later acknowledged the deal’s rollout looked “opportunistic,” and the company has since moved to clarify restrictions on how its systems can be used by the military.
An OpenAI spokesperson confirmed the departure and provided a statement: “We believe our agreement with the Pentagon creates a workable path for responsible national security uses of AI while making clear our red lines: no domestic surveillance and no autonomous weapons. We recognize that people have strong views about these issues and we will continue to engage in discussion with employees, government, civil society and communities around the world.”
Before OpenAI hired Kalinowski to lead hardware under VP of research Aditya Ramesh, who leads an internal research effort focused on building AI systems that can simulate the physical world, she served as a hardware executive at Meta. She spent nearly two and a half years leading the company’s creation of Orion, previously codenamed Project Nazare, which it billed as “the most advanced pair of AR glasses ever made.” Meta unveiled its prototype glasses in September.
Before leading the Orion project, she worked for more than nine years on virtual reality headsets at Meta-owned Oculus, and before that, nearly six years at Apple helping to design MacBooks, including Pro and Air models.
