Expert opinions on Public Interest AI

Governor Pritzker does not believe big tech companies should ever be given a full shield that evades responsibilities they should have to protect the public interest.

Existing legal principles, such as under tort and contract law, can be applied by our courts to assess and determine liability in appropriate cases. That being said, we share the concerns raised by the Member, and will continue to study this issue, i...

States should not be permitted to penalize AI developers for a third party’s unlawful conduct involving their models.

Dedicated AIRR capacity supports the AI Security Institute and the Sovereign AI Unit, including guaranteed resource for mission-critical AI safety research, and strategically selected UK AI startups.

Expanding access to AI compute capacity, and promoting sustainable, resilient and environmentally responsible digital infrastructure, and supporting innovators while enhancing Canada and Finland’s shared economic security and prosperity. Exploring co...

This creates what we call the “Abundance Flywheel”: commit compute to a hard problem, focus R&D until it clears, watch the domain collapse from artisanal craft to industrial utility, capture the surplus, and reinvest it into the next target. Repeat u...

AI could make goods and services cheaper than ever, raising hopes for a new age of abundance where scarcity plays a smaller role in human life.

It is often suggested that the advent of powerful AI will create abundance and that it can thereby contribute to securing social harmony. This paper draws on Hirsch’s study of different kinds of limits to growth to show that this is false.

And so if you were to deploy those in autonomous systems without a human on the loop, not even just in the loop, but if you don't have a kill switch and you don't have any ability to stop something after it's set in motion, then that's quite dangerou...

The Government strongly believes that there is a need to maintain meaningful human control of all weapons systems, including any systems that may be developed. Our position is that, for such systems to comply with international humanitarian law, cont...

I need a reliable, steady partner that gives me something, that'll work with me on autonomous, because someday it'll be real and we're starting to see earlier versions of that.

The Global Dialogue on Artificial Intelligence Governance is the first platform under a United Nations General Assembly mandate where Member States and all relevant stakeholders convene on AI governance.

SAFE confidentially collects and analyzes AI incidents and near misses, promptly informs affected parties and turns recurring failures into shared, evidence-based controls that reduce systemic risk.

Rather than creating entirely new channels, policymakers should focus on ensuring that existing channels can effectively incorporate information related to frontier models and agents. Building on trusted relationships will be faster and more effectiv...

Pre-release testing and pre-deployment testing are important, but that type of evidence needs to continue via continual monitoring of the systems post-deployment, incident reporting, and observing behaviour in the wild rather than just in the laborat...

Timelines for incident reports are often set with well-intentioned urgency, but if they implicitly assume that root-cause analysis or full impact assessment has already been conducted, they will either produce premature and unreliable reports or plac...

I appreciate the intent behind the amendments and the shadow Minister’s position of understanding but not supporting them, which I share.

The study advocates for establishing a new category of “electronic agents” endowed with limited rights and strict liabilities, designed to facilitate legal interactions without undermining human dignity or rights.

This Constitution recognizes three categories of constitutional persons: Operators, Agents, and Affected Parties. Each has distinct rights and obligations that together form a governance ecosystem. The Operator deploys and configures; the Agent acts ...

The study concludes that extending legal personhood to AI remains premature and that adaptive governance frameworks are more appropriate for managing future AI-related legal challenges.

I would like to see a CERN for AI [...] where all the top scientists come together and see whether they can make a super intelligence. And, if they can, they contain it into a system where it can't just go out and persuade people to let it run the wo...

I call on the governments of the world to take immediate action to end this danger by permanently banning the development of artificial general intelligence and machine superintelligence.
