Public analysis
AI safety work needs a public memory: incidents, failure modes, and the operational lessons they reveal.
A first-pass scoring model can help readers compare hallucination, jailbreak, bias, and context stability risks.
Prompt injection is not just a jailbreak trick; it is a repeatable security failure mode for AI systems that read untrusted content.
A practical guide to reading model cards, system cards, benchmarks, and safety score previews without mistaking them for safety certificates.
A practical checklist for reviewing AI hiring systems before historical bias becomes automated screening at scale.
A vehicle-centered checklist for reviewing autonomous driving safety evidence before perception, fallback, oversight, and crash-response gaps become safety failures.
Model cards are supposed to make AI transparent. Most don't. Here's how to read them so you actually learn what the model can and cannot do.
Red teaming doesn't require a dedicated team. It requires structured thinking, repeatable tests, and the willingness to break your own assumptions.
Deploying AI in a regulated environment requires more than a model card. This checklist covers the governance, risk, and compliance layers most teams miss.
Transparency reports are now standard for major AI labs. But the gap between what is disclosed and what users need is still wide. Here's what to look for.
Jailbreaks are getting more sophisticated. The defenses that worked in 2024 are losing ground. Here are the techniques that are holding up against current frontier models.
Most AI safety metrics are either too vague or too narrow. This guide defines the metrics that should be on every AI safety team's dashboard.
Field guides
From legal hallucinations to autonomous vehicle failures, the same risk patterns appear across domains.
From HELM to SWE-bench, the evaluation ecosystem is fragmented. This report maps the benchmarks, identifies the gaps, and proposes what a unified safety evaluation should look like.
Free first, paid later
Incidents, scores, categories, summaries, and public analysis remain free and indexable. Future paid services should focus on alerts, exports, historical comparisons, and team workflows after backend quality gates exist.
Planned future tiers
