In September 2024, Governor Gavin Newsom requested that Dr. Fei-Fei Li, Co-Director of the Stanford Institute for Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence; Dr. Mariano-Florentino Cuéllar, President of the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace; and Dr. Jennifer Tour Chayes, Dean of the UC Berkeley College of Computing, Data Science, and Society, prepare a report focused on artificial intelligence (AI) frontier models.
The following report leverages broad evidence to provide a framework for policymaking on frontier AI, taking into account the importance of innovation and establishing appropriate strategies to reduce material risks. It surveys AI research representing multiple disciplines to derive policy principles that can inform how California approaches the use, assessment, and governance of frontier AI.
This report is offered as a draft for feedback. Feedback may be provided via the form below by April 8, 2025. Feedback will be reviewed and incorporated into a final report, expected by June 2025.
This effort represents scholarly work from each of the Co-Leads and does not represent the positions of their institutions. The Co-Leads were aided in the production of this report by scholars from their institutions acting in their own, independent capacity. The draft report was reviewed by experts covering a range of disciplines. The Co-Leads solicit feedback, reflections, and additional information from a variety of disciplines and sectors for consideration in advance of the final report.
