While the EU AI Act and the Whistleblower Protection Directive lay strong legal foundations, key gaps remain in strengthening AI whistleblower protections in the EU.

Our guest contributor, Jakub Kryś (Tallos Fellowship), addressed the gaps and provided recommendations in his recent research.

Daniel Kokotajlo joins the call on AI companies to publish their whistleblowing systems: A full year after the "right to warn" (published alongside other campaign members,
Lawrence Lessig and Stuart Russell), AI companies still keep their whistleblowing systems secret. #publishyourpolicies

While AI leaders have publicly acknowledged the potential risks that AI carries, our coalition partners are now calling for concrete measures to ensure responsible governance.

The first essential step is the publication of whistleblowing policies. #PublishYourPolicies

The public deserves AI transparency.

AI companies have a unique opportunity right now to show they're serious about empowering insiders to raise concerns. Here's why #PublishYourPolicies matters: publishyourpolicies.org
August 1, 2025 at 3:21 PM
Only OpenAI has published their whistleblowing policies after public pressure in 2024. AI leaders shouldn't wait for pressure or worse; scandals, to drive transparency.

Other Frontier AI companies now have the opportunity to act early and lead on our transparency board.

The Essential First Step: AI companies must make their whistleblowing policies publicly accessible. We call this Level 1: Protection measures, reporting channels, and investigation procedures. Without transparency, we can only rely on 'trust'. But trust must be built on transparency.
