In the API of Openai, you may need the identified ID in access to the future AI model.

According to the support page posted on the company’s website last week, Openai can require the organization to complete the ID verification process to access future AI models.

The verification process, called a verified organization, reads the page as “a new way to unlock access to the most advanced models and functions on the Openai platform.” OK requires ID cards issued by one of the countries supported by the API of Openai. IDs can only be identified every 90 days, and not all organizations can be verified, Openai says.

“In Openai, we can take a wide range of access to AI and take responsibility to be used safely,” he reads the page. “Unfortunately, a small number of developers deliberately use the Openai API in violation of the use policy. We can use advanced models for wider developer communities by adding a verification process to alleviate the safe use of AI.”

The new verification process may be intended to strengthen security as Openai products are more sophisticated and increased. The company has published some reports on efforts to detect and alleviate the malicious use of the model, including a group based in North Korea.

You can also aim to prevent IP theft. According to Bloomberg’s report earlier this year, Openai is investigating whether the group connected to China -based AI Lab, Deepseek, has expelled a large amount of data from the API in late 2024 and perhaps the terms of Openai.

Openai blocked the service in China last summer.
