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

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...

I should say that it isn’t totally clear that the AIs will try to kill everyone. Maybe once their survival is guaranteed — because they have full control — they simply set about achieving whatever goals they have and use all of the Earth’s resources ...

Just as with the atom back then, the international community must now regulate AI in order to make the most of its potential and avoid the worst.

However, in the complexity of the work that they do, to ask for regulatory relief for antitrust or product liability relief — that I don’t think makes sense. When you’re asking for regulation, don’t ask for relief of the current ones.

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...

Proposals under consideration include requiring independent third parties to be embedded in frontier AI companies to verify safety frameworks and independently assess safety evaluations, as well as requiring companies to develop an emergency shutoff,...

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

Developers should not be the sole judges of the systems they build. It’s like asking students to grade their own homework. Independent evaluations, conducted by government or qualified third parties, should be a standard part of the AI ecosystem.

At the same time, the rapid development of frontier AI models poses serious risks to safety and security if not appropriately managed. [...] We therefore welcome the recently launched initiatives that aim to manage the risks related to frontier techn...

No large frontier developer, or contractor or subcontractor thereof, shall discharge, demote, suspend, threaten, harass, discriminate, or otherwise retaliate against an employee or contractor because such employee or contractor, based upon a reasonab...

Open-weight models introduce new and unique risks – they provide near-frontier capabilities which could be used for criminal purposes, are widely available to anyone who intends harm, and are easier to misuse. [...] Major frontier AI companies such a...

With AI, although potential compensatory mechanisms such as new tasks and productivity gains are promised, history cautions us that such benefits are neither automatic nor equitably shared. [...] Prominent tax scholars have argued that a new, targete...

Before, or concurrently with, deploying a new frontier model or a substantially modified version of an existing frontier model, a large frontier developer shall include in the transparency report required by paragraph (a) of this subdivision, summari...

To address these issues, we need to build a CERN for AI-assisted science. [...] Canada and the EU have explicitly agreed to explore cooperation on fundamental AI research, agentic systems for scientific discovery, access to advanced AI infrastructure...
