NoteThe source directly confirms all three elements of the claim: (1) Zico Kolter chairs the Safety & Security Committee, (2) the SSC is a Foundation board committee only (not PBC), and (3) Dr. Kolter serves exclusively on the Foundation board (not on the OpenAI Group PBC board, where he serves only as a non-voting observer). The source date is October 28, 2025, which matches the claim's 'as of 2025-10' timeframe. The additional context about him being a professor at Carnegie Mellon is not contradicted by the source (which doesn't address his academic affiliation, but that's not a contradiction).
