Threat Landscape
Overview of Identified AI Threats
Presentation of raw threat data and initial categorization.
Raw AI Threats (Input 2: raw_ai_threats.md)Detailed Threat Vector Profiles
Analysis of specific threat typologies, characteristics, capabilities, and potential impacts.
Threat Vector Profiles (Input 5: threat_vector_profiles.md)Analysis of Second-Order Effects
Exploration of cascading and indirect consequences stemming from primary threats.
Second-Order Effects (Input 10: second_order_effects.md)4
Governance Review
Governance Model Taxonomy
Definition and categorization of different approaches to governing AI risks.
Governance Model Taxonomy (Input 7: governance_model_taxonomy.md)Comparison of Regulatory Approaches
Analysis comparing various existing or proposed regulatory strategies across different domains or jurisdictions.
Regulatory Approach Comparison (Input 8: regulatory_approach_comparison.md)Analysis of Public vs. Private Controls
Examination of the roles and effectiveness of government regulations versus industry self-governance and private sector initiatives.
Public-Private Control Analysis (Input 6: public_private_control_analysis.md)Observed Governance Failures
Documentation and analysis of instances where existing governance mechanisms have proven insufficient or failed.
Raw Governance Failures (Input 4: raw_governance_failures.md)Assessment of Governance Effectiveness
Evaluation of how well current governance structures and controls mitigate identified threats and manage risks.
Governance Effectiveness (Input 9: governance_effectiveness.md)Analysis of Framework Gaps
Identification of areas where existing governance frameworks are incomplete, outdated, or lack necessary mechanisms to address the threat landscape.
Framework Gaps (Input 11: framework_gaps.md)Interactions between Threats and Governance
Exploration of how specific threats interact with and potentially exploit weaknesses in governance structures.
Threat Governance Interactions (Input 12: threat_governance_interactions.md)5
