Executive summary: This post provides a comprehensive overview of corporate governance for frontier AI, identifying key areas for research and providing examples of existing literature on risk assessments, committee design, lines of defense models, and other governance topics.
Key points:
Corporate governance is vital for responsible frontier AI development to manage societal risks. Five priority areas are risk assessments, incident reporting, committees, risk awareness, and senior management roles.
Effective risk assessments require evaluating all risks systematically, defining thresholds and control frameworks, and prioritizing the most dangerous risks.
Incident reporting should measure harms, provide accountability, have clear definitions, and effective post-mortems.
Committees need independence, expertise, and decision-making power to provide meaningful oversight and challenge.
Comprehensive risk awareness requires training, control frameworks, and cultivation of culture by leadership.
Precisely defined senior management roles enable accountability for potential harms.
There are many open questions on tailoring governance to frontier AI. Sample existing literature provides models and analysis.
