It maps the emergence, growth and fortunes of three different tracks in the global AI governance architecture, tracing efforts focused on governing military AI systems (since 2009), conventional narrow AI systems (since 2015), and advanced general-purpose AI systems (since 2022)

in sum, it's a one-stop shop for all the hot challenges facing the world in AI. Use it to position your AI policies; use it in class; give it to your toddler (mine loves it I swear)! Get it at: Chapter 2: https://t.co/JiRITEhDAF ...

📖 Chapter 2 of my book, 'Scaling Law for AI', charts the space of global #AIgovernance issues raised by conventional (i.e. narrow), military, and advanced (i.e. general-purpose/frontier) AI systems; and examines rationales for- and enforceability of specifically global responses

amazing post, totally overlooked. Mark's sheer patience probably got him an early look at Gemini 3. One of the only evals I buy is "world expert (here, in palaeography, reading cursed old handwriting) does a stress test and is very impressed"

... and evaluates these for two near-term future scenarios: (1) further capability progress at the AI frontier, or (2) further proliferation of today’s algorithmic state of the art. Either scenario would have quite transformative impact; both remain plausible.
