30/05/2025 | AI Security Institute

New research by the UK AI Security Institute (AISI) focuses on the evaluation of misuse safeguards, which are technical interventions implemented by advanced artificial intelligence (AI) developers to prevent AI systems from generating harmful information or actions.
