Summary
A comprehensive international report synthesizing scientific consensus on AI safety risks, capabilities, and governance challenges, produced by a panel of leading AI researchers and policymakers. It serves as a landmark reference document for governments and institutions seeking to understand and respond to AI-related risks. The report covers current AI capabilities, potential harms, and recommendations for safety measures.
Key Points
- •Produced by an international panel of AI experts convened to establish shared scientific understanding of AI safety risks across nations.
- •Covers the current state of AI capabilities, foreseeable risks (near-term and long-term), and gaps in safety knowledge.
- •Intended to inform policymakers and regulators globally, analogous to the IPCC reports for climate change.
- •Addresses both near-term harms (misuse, bias, accidents) and longer-term risks from more advanced AI systems.
- •Represents a major international coordination effort to build consensus on AI safety science across governments.

About the International AI Safety Report
The International AI Safety Report is the world's first comprehensive review of the latest science on the capabilities and risks of general-purpose AI systems. The work was overseen by an international Expert Advisory Panel nominated by over 30 countries and intergovernmental organisations. Written by over 100 independent experts and led by Turing Award winner Yoshua Bengio, it represents the largest international collaboration on AI safety research to date. The Report provides decision-makers in government and beyond with a shared and authorative global picture of AI's risks and impacts.
