Executive summary: As AI capabilities grow, a resilient post-deployment incident response framework is critical to mitigating risks from deployed models, requiring AI companies and policymakers to implement proactive monitoring, containment tools, and collaborative response strategies.
Key points:
Growing AI risks necessitate incident response preparedness: AI models, while beneficial, pose risks such as cybersecurity threats and misuse by adversaries, highlighting the need for robust incident response strategies.
Four-stage response framework for AI incidents: The Institute for AI Policy and Strategy (IAPS) proposes a four-stage framework—prepare, monitor and analyze, execute, and recovery—to address post-deployment AI threats effectively.
Mitigation tools for incident response: Strategies such as user-based restrictions, access frequency limits, capability reductions, and model shutdowns can help contain and mitigate AI-related risks.
Challenges with open-source models: Unlike closed-source AI, open-source models present unique challenges, as containment and mitigation tools are often ineffective once models are publicly available.
Current AI policies lack sufficient response measures: Existing AI company policies, such as Responsible Scaling Policies (RSPs), and regulatory frameworks like CIRCIA focus on transparency but lack detailed, enforceable incident response requirements.
Call for industry and government collaboration: AI companies must enhance control over model access, define clear response roles, and collaborate with policymakers and regulatory agencies to strengthen AI incident response protocols.
