AI Risk Assessment Methodology

Our risk assessment methodology leverages a sophisticated analysis framework to evaluate AI development and its potential implications:

Data Collection

We continuously monitor and aggregate AI news from leading research institutions, tech companies, and policy organizations worldwide. Our system analyzes hundreds of developments daily across multiple languages and sources.

Impact Analysis

Each news item undergoes rigorous assessment through:

  • Technical Evaluation: Analysis of computational advancements, algorithmic breakthroughs, and capability improvements
  • Safety Research: Progress in alignment, interpretability, and containment mechanisms
  • Governance Factors: Regulatory developments, industry standards, and institutional safeguards

Indicator Calculation

Our indicators are updated using a Bayesian probabilistic model that:

  • Assigns weighted impact scores to each analyzed development
  • Calculates cumulative effects on control loss probability and AGI timelines
  • Accounts for interdependencies between different technological trajectories
  • Maintains historical trends to identify acceleration or deceleration patterns

This methodology enables data-driven forecasting while acknowledging the inherent uncertainties in predicting transformative technological change.
