Science and Technology Advisor at the United Arab Emirates Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

The answer isn't convergence for its own sake. We can push too hard on one thing. But if you have one standard, you could risk a lowest common denominator outcome that can cost us the innovation system as well and might have a risk on the national interests in those sectors.

Mandate 72-hour reporting of critical AI safety incidents to a national authority

There's no shared incident reporting infrastructure. So you'll have different incident monitors tracking failures independently and voluntarily, but there's no legal duty to report or to recognize—or any recognition between them.

Nof Alhamli votes For

Establish an international AI incident reporting system

Right now, the governance frameworks are multiplying faster than the evidence base that's underneath them. And there's no shared incident reporting infrastructure.
