Comment by Colin Ahern

The Federal Government should establish a regulatory framework for frontier AI development that prevents the proliferation and misuse of cyber-offensive capabilities which threaten homeland security. The framework should be harmonized with the operational requirements of the New York RAISE Act and should include three elements at minimum: pre-deployment cyber-capability evaluations by large developers, with results shared with federal, state, and local stakeholders; mandatory reporting when developers detect their models being used in cyber operations against critical infrastructure; and mandatory reporting of catastrophic-risk events like those defined in the RAISE Act statute.
