Background
By enshrining AISI’s mandate, powers and collaboration with regulators, we think the risks of advanced AI systems could be mitigated, safeguarding the public, and promoting ethical AI development. We think the AISI should have the legal authority to evaluate new AI models before public release and block those that pose a threat. We think this approach balances innovation with safety while leveraging existing expertise. We think empowering the AISI would also protect its impartiality and longevity, ensuring consistent and effective AI oversight.
