Social Impacts of Artificial Intelligence and Mitigation Recommendations: An Exploratory Study

A 2023 systematic review of 175 articles identifies nine categories of AI social impact, led by bias and discrimination.

Key points
  • MIT AI Risk Repository spotlights this as one of ten risk frameworks informing its broader AI risk taxonomy.
  • The paper is a 2021 conference proceedings item; MIT's blog summary adds limited new content beyond the original framework.

Managing the ethical and risk implications of rapid advances in artificial intelligence: A literature review

MIT AI Risk Repository spotlights a 2016 literature review categorising AI ethical risks along three axes.

Key points
  • The framework uses PEST analysis to propose management strategies including ethics committees and AI security measures.
  • The source paper is nearly a decade old; field has advanced significantly since its publication.

NIST Researchers Meet with NHTSA Experts to Share Approaches to Assessment of Automated Vehicle System Performance

NIST and NHTSA researchers met to share approaches to automated vehicle testing and assessment methodologies.

Key points
  • Focus was on virtual and physical AV testing, sensor robustness, and scenario simulation - not AI governance directly.
  • Limited direct relevance to Australian federal agencies; included as background on US AV standards development.

NIST Hosts Second Stakeholder Workshop on Digital Twins

NIST held its second stakeholder workshop on Digital Twins standards and infrastructure in January 2025.

Key points
  • Workshop focused on interoperability barriers and sustainability across the Digital Twin lifecycle.
  • Digital twins are adjacent to AI but this item is primarily a standards-process update with no direct APS angle.

Examining the differential risk from high-level artificial intelligence and the question of control

MIT AI Risk Repository summarises a four-class framework covering misuse, accident, structural, and agential AI risks.

Key points
  • Expert survey data identifies monopolistic race dynamics, alignment failures, and power-seeking as highest-impact risks.
  • A useful taxonomy for APS risk registers, though the framework targets advanced/AGI-level AI rather than current deployments.

A framework for ethical AI at the United Nations

MIT AI Risk Repository summarises a UN-focused ethical AI framework identifying 13 AI risk categories.

Key points
  • The framework covers risks relevant to APS governance work: bias, transparency, manipulation, and exclusion.
  • The underlying paper is from 2021; this is a secondary summary with limited new analytical value for APS readers.

Mapping the ethics of generative AI: A comprehensive scoping review

A scoping review identifies 378 normative issues across 19 topic areas in generative AI ethics literature.

Key points
  • The taxonomy covers areas directly relevant to APS AI governance: fairness, hallucinations, transparency, evaluation, and alignment.
  • The MIT AI Risk Repository context makes this a useful reference for agencies building AI risk registers or ethics frameworks.

Navigating the Landscape of AI Ethics and Responsibility

A 2023 academic framework clusters AI ethics and responsibility issues into six groups via systematic literature review.

Key points
  • The six clusters map closely to risk categories already recognised in Australian AI governance frameworks and agency guidance.
  • This is a summary of an existing academic paper - useful context but not new primary guidance for APS practitioners.

Risk Taxonomy, Mitigation, and Assessment Benchmarks of Large Language Model Systems

A module-oriented LLM risk taxonomy covering 12 risks and 44 sub-categories across input, model, toolchain, and output layers.

Key points
  • Included in the MIT AI Risk Repository, making it a reference point for agencies surveying structured AI risk frameworks.
  • Primarily an academic arXiv paper summarised for practitioners - useful as background reading rather than actionable guidance.

TASRA: A Taxonomy and Analysis of Societal-Scale Risks from AI

TASRA classifies AI risks into six types based on accountability: who acts, whether unified, and whether deliberate.

Key points
  • The taxonomy covers diffuse responsibility, unintended scale, willful indifference, criminal misuse, and state weaponisation.
  • This is a 2023 academic preprint summarised in 2024 - useful reference material, not a new regulatory development.

Lessons from the FDA for AI

AI Now Institute draws on FDA pharmaceutical regulation as a model for ex ante AI regulatory design.

Key points
  • The report examines premarket scrutiny, regulatory functions, and industry capture risks - all live questions for Australian AI governance.
  • Published mid-2024; the political climate the authors describe as hostile to premarket AI enforcement remains broadly unchanged.

Safety and War: Safety and Security Assurance of Military AI Systems

AI Now Institute argues military AI systems like Lavender and Gospel lack safety assurance, oversight, and accountability.

Key points
  • The paper calls for safety engineering frameworks applied to military AI - directly relevant to defence AI governance debates.
  • This is introductory framing for a future research series; substantive technical guidance is not yet published.
