AI risks are everywhere - and now MIT is adding them all to one database
Briefly

The MIT CSAIL launched the AI Risk Repository to consolidate over 700 documented AI risks, addressing the challenge of fragmented literature in regulatory and policy decisions.
Census data shows a notable increase in AI usage within US industries, up from 3.7% to 5.45% between September 2023 and February 2024, highlighting the urgent need for comprehensive understanding of associated risks.
Taniel Yusef noted that without specific studies on niche AI applications, it is difficult to communicate technical aspects of AI risk to a broader audience, thus emphasizing the repository's importance.
For risk evaluators and policymakers, the fragmented nature of existing AI risk literature complicates their ability to assess and respond to the complex landscape of AI-related risks.
