The Loss of Control Playbook: Degrees, Dynamics, and Preparedness
Despite increasing policy and research attention to Loss of Control (LoC), decision- and policymakers are still operating in the absence of a uniform conceptualization and definition of LoC. Today, we bridge this gap through a novel taxonomy and preparedness framework for LoC that explores the degrees and dynamics of LoC through a comprehensive best-in-class literature review and presents actionable tools to counter relevant threats to national security and humanity.

AI Behind Closed Doors: a Primer on The Governance of Internal Deployment
In the race toward increasingly capable artificial intelligence (AI) systems, much attention has been focused on how these systems interact with the public. However, a critical blind spot exists in our collective thinking: the governance of highly advanced AI systems deployed within the frontier AI companies developing them. Today, we publish the first report of its kind providing a multi-faceted analysis of the risks and governance of internal deployment.

Capturing and Countering Threats to National Security: a Blueprint for an Agile AI Incident Regime
We propose a three-pronged approach to an AI incident regime that supports the establishment and implementation of a state capacity to track the national security threats that future frontier AI systems may pose and to swiftly execute countermeasures to contain and neutralize these threats.
