The hearing did not enact a law. Kwon acknowledged that OpenAI should have reported the earlier Medicare statistics breach sooner. ABC says he described new internal alerts for improper internet use during training. His account does not establish that those changes prevent another breach.

Watch the proposed reporting deadlines and who must receive notices. The inquiry's final report is due November 30.
