MIT AI Risk Repository and Index: Expression of Interest
 

Thank you for your interest in The AI Risk Index and The AI Risk Repository.

The AI Risk Repository serves as a comprehensive database of risks from artificial intelligence. It contains over 1000 risks extracted from 56 existing frameworks, organized through both a causal taxonomy and a domain taxonomy.

The AI Risk Index builds upon this foundation to systematically assess how key actors in the AI ecosystem are responding to these risks.
