Interim Executive Director at Georgetown University's Center for Security and Emerging Technology (CSET); former OpenAI board member
AI systems are being developed entirely within private industry, with little visibility available to Congress or the executive branch. [...] Congress should set transparency requirements for developers of high-stakes AI systems, including requirements regarding training data, capability testing, safety testing, risk management practices, internal deployments, safety cases, and real-world incidents.

Verified. WebFetch on the CSET URL returned HTTP 403, but a targeted web search confirmed the quote matches Helen Toner's testimony before the U.S. Senate Committee on the Judiciary (April 22, 2026), summarized at the source URL (cset.georgetown.edu). She recommended transparency requirements for developers of high-stakes AI systems covering training data, capability testing, safety testing, risk management practices, internal deployments, safety cases, and real-world incidents, noting AI is developed within private industry with little visibility to Congress or the executive branch. Author attribution is correct (Helen Toner, Interim Executive Director at Georgetown CSET, former OpenAI board member). Her vote "for" the statement "Mandate 72-hour reporting of critical AI safety incidents to a national authority" aligns: the quote explicitly lists transparency about "real-world incidents" as a requirement, supporting mandatory incident reporting to government. The quote is somewhat broader than the specific 72-hour timeframe but supports the same direction. Year 2026 matches the testimony date. Source URL is the CSET primary source for her testimony.
