From an x-risk perspective, I think this report is good. It's far from shovel-ready policy proposals, but it points in some reasonable directions and might advance the debate.

I think it's wrong on #5 (watermarking)– what could Meta do if LLaMa had been watermarked? And #7 seems to have little x-risk relevance.

There's a tweet thread by Jason Crawford that talks about how liability law could be used for safer AI:

In essence, use liability law and liability insurance to make the market price in externalities, such that the market can be incentivized to solve the AI Alignment problem.
