A new standard for third-party AI evaluation, AEF-1, has been proposed by the AI Evaluator Forum, aiming to formalize independent assessments of AI models and their development processes. This initiative is supported by major AI labs including OpenAI, Anthropic, and xAI, with Anthropic unilaterally committing to embedding evaluators within their operations. The standard addresses critical aspects like access, conflicts of interest, and transparency, drawing parallels to oversight practices in the banking industry. This development occurs amidst a broader debate on pacing AI progress versus prioritizing specific safety and control measures. AI
