Summary
Thresholds & responses: https://cdn.openai.com/pdf/18a02b5d-6b67-4cec-ab64-68cdfbddebcd/preparedness-framework-v2.pdf#page=5. High and Critical thresholds trigger responses, like in the old PF; responses to Critical thresholds are not yet specified.
Three main categories of capabilities:
- Bio/chem: High capabilities trigger security controls and (for external deployment) misuse safeguards
- Cyber: High capabilities trigger security controls and (for external deployment) misuse safeguards and (for large-scale internal deployment) misalignment safeguards
- AI Self-improvement: High capabilities trigger security controls
Misuse safeguards, misalignment safeguards, and security controls for High capability levels: https://cdn.openai.com/pdf/18a02b5d-6b67-4cec-ab64-68cdfbddebcd/preparedness-framework-v2.pdf#page=16. My quick takes:
- Misuse safeguards: fine categories but it's not clear what level of assurance would suffice
- Misalignment safeguards: worrying categories and it's not clear what level of assurance would suffice
- Security controls: it's impossible to evaluate security level based on principles like these
[I'll edit this post to add more analysis soon]
