Comment by Gabriel Accascina

The supply side, or the places where frontier AI is produced, evaluated and released, has no meaningful U.N. presence at all. There is no multilateral body with technical staff who can examine a laboratory’s work, no arrangement for evaluating training runs, no shared infrastructure for incident reporting across borders. [...] Filling that gap does not require a new agency on Day 1: A UN80 mandate for a small standing-evaluation unit, assembled from assets the U.N. already owns, such as the International Computing Center, and an invitation to the labs to extend to the center the voluntary agreements they already honor in London and Washington would be enough to begin.
