DeepMind—DeepMind published Frontier Safety Framework with critical capability levels and safety protocols
In 2024, Google DeepMind published its Frontier Safety Framework, a set of protocols for proactively identifying future AI capabilities that could cause severe harm and implementing detection and mitigation mechanisms. The framework defines Critical Capability Levels across autonomy, biosecurity, cybersecurity, and ML R&D domains. Safety cases must be developed and approved by corporate governance bodies before general availability deployment of frontier models like Gemini 2.0.
