Joshua Saxe, former senior technical expert on AI security at Meta, shared slides from his keynote at the AI Security Forum, arguing that policymakers fundamentally misunderstand AI cyber risk.
He emphasized that the current framework wrongly imagines safety primarily as a property of individual models rather than systemic defense. Drawing from his experience in frontier model evals and policy discussions, he warns that failing to correct this approach soon will be highly detrimental to our social fabric.
