Demis Hassabis proposes federal AI review board before model release

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Demis Hassabis has proposed the creation of a federal standards body to review advanced AI models prior to their release. This proposal suggests a review period of up to 30 days before a model can be made public. While Gary Marcus views this as a validation of preflight testing, others like Brookings have pointed out potential issues with enforceability, raising questions about the effectiveness of a body potentially funded by the very labs it would oversee. AI

IMPACT This proposal could lead to new regulatory hurdles for AI development, potentially slowing down or altering the release cycle of frontier models.
