## Why It Matters

As labs race on frontier models — Gemini 4 Argon and Claude Sonnet 5 dominate today's news — OpenAI is staking out a process for documenting how training runs are made safe. The guidelines are an early, self-published framework rather than an external standard; it's OpenAI's own description of its approach, not an independent safety certification.
