AI Emergency Preparedness: Examining the Federal Government's Ability to Detect and Respond to AI-Related National Security Threats
By Akash Wasil et al.This paper uses scenario planning to show how governments could prepare for AI emergencies. The authors examine three plausible disasters: losing control of AI, AI model theft, and bioweapon creation. They then expose gaps in current preparedness systems, and propose specific government reforms including embedding auditors inside AI companies and creating emergency response units.Source:https://arxiv.org/pdf/2407.17347A podcast by BlueDot Impact.Learn more on the AI Safety Fundamentals website.

Resilience and Adaptation to Advanced AI
By Jamie BernardiJamie Bernardi argues that we can't rely solely on model safeguards to ensure AI safety. Instead, he proposes "AI resilience": building society's capacity to detect misuse, defend against harmful AI applications, and reduce the damage caused when dangerous AI capabilities spread beyond a government or company's control.Source: https://airesilience.substack.com/p/resilience-and-adaptation-to-advanced?utm_source=bluedot-impactA podcast by BlueDot Impact.Learn more on the AI Safety Fundamentals website.
