Tangled AI governance
Roberts & Ziosi show why ISO, IEC, & … can’t govern alone—> too slow, too narrow, too captured.
Their fix—>
—> SDOs for trailing-edge risks (risk, compliance, process)
—> Agile actors for the frontier (evals, red-teaming). Exactly what my professor calls Tangled Governance

Can we standardise the frontier of AI? - Oxford Martin AIGI
International standards have been promoted as a mechanism that can support the governance of advanced AI through explicating national-level regulations, supporting interoperability between different j...

To claim “no AI industry without Meta” flattens collective progress into branding. Meta played a key role—PyTorch, LLaMA, FAIR. No doubt.
But let’s not rewrite history. Modern AI stands on decades of work in math, optimization, and theory—long before FAIR!

AI systems are deployed at scale without any statutory mechanism for independent oversight. Lacking legal safeguards or disclosure infrastructure, safety remains self-declared. This paper proposes a framework for third-party flaw disclosure to contest that asymmetry

A Framework to Report AI’s Flaws | Stanford HAI
Pointing to "white-hat" hacking, AI policy experts recommend a new system of third-party reporting and tracking of AI’s flaws.

10-year federal ban on state AI laws proposed.
Broad scope, no federal replacement.
Bipartisan resistance growing.
Not coordination—erasure.

Need a framework for when to use AI—and when not?
This paper offer FIRE as a test. If a decision is:
→ Forward-looking
→ Individual and context-specific
→ Requires causal reasoning
→ Emerges through experimentation--then it’s not a task to fully hand off to a model.
