White House task force to weigh whether AI labs must report rogue model incidents

See how this story connects

Source: political.org

Scott Kupor, a vice chair of the Super Intelligence Force, told CNN’s “The Lead” the task force will take up what he called an appropriate notification paradigm, for lack of a better word, for companies to tell the government about incidents. He said it will examine whether developers have a legal obligation to report; at present they disclose voluntarily. The task force is chaired by Director of National Intelligence Jay Clayton, with Kupor, Federal Trade Commission chairman Andrew Ferguson and Under Secretary of Defense Emil Michael as vice chairs, and has about four months to assess AI risks and recommend what role the government should take. Its four leaders were to meet on 8 October, with the full committee the following week and a charter after that.

Why it matters

A reporting duty would replace the voluntary disclosures Anthropic and OpenAI now publish, and the task force has about four months to decide.
