What's new in AI governance, safety, jobs and society

We must collectively formulate new rules and be prepared to create new institutions, if necessary, for new technologies. [...] We must explore all options, including the idea of a UN Framework Convention on AI Safeguards.

The first is to define reportable events together. The new channel will be worth exactly as much as its list of triggers: an agent loose outside its test environment, a model that gives real help to someone designing a pathogen, a large AI-driven int...

Just please don’t do the thing that’s going to get us all killed.

If you want to build a frontier model in a very competitive space, you need to do this quickly.

Yes—intelligence can probably be artificial. But artificial intelligence does not therefore have to possess an artificial version of the human mind. [...] What has not been established is that current AI possesses consciousness, subjective experience...

To declare today’s AI conscious simply because it speaks fluently would go far beyond the available evidence. But to declare that a machine could never become conscious would also claim more certainty than science presently allows.

The best way to guarantee safety [...] is for those creating the technology to be liable for what they build and generate.

We should also slow down their development until we find a way to make this technology safe and channel its power towards the goals we truly have as a society.

An AI agent is not a legal person, and in our law liability for this type of incident always sits with a person or a company. The liability has to be traced back to the intent of a person or a company that created or directed the agent.

Two leading AI companies have just committed to giving outside evaluators a seat inside the building. On September 12, Anthropic’s Dario Amodei committed to giving independent evaluators “ongoing, employee-like access” to verify the company’s safety ...

An agent with production access, payment authority, persistent credentials, or the ability to direct other agents should face stronger evaluation, logging, approval, and incident-reporting expectations. [...] For serious incidents, a report should an...

The scientific work now is to ensure reasoning of powerful AI models remains observable as they become more capable, or to build the tools to read it where it is not, and to verify that complete AI systems, not just the models inside them, can be rel...

I believe that AI will be a productivity boom for this country. [...] If the economy grows and GDP grows, which is what happens in productivity, you actually create more jobs or you don't lose jobs because you need more jobs for what's going on in th...

We will only encourage super intelligence. We’re going to encourage it, not rein it in.

Each large frontier developer shall begin to develop a frontier AI framework to govern how the large frontier developer will: [...] Establish thresholds to assess whether a frontier model has capabilities that could pose a catastrophic risk [...] App...
