Rishi Bommasani announces STABL, a new nonprofit co-founded with Sayash Kapoor and Arvind Narayanan, built on four beliefs: advanced AI will broadly transform society, beneficially if well managed; the speed of transformation is governed by bottlenecks that often lie in people and organizations, not AI capabilities alone; managing advanced-AI risk therefore requires broad societal resilience — not just aligned models or capability delays — for defense in depth; and today's institutions are often insufficient (post truncated).
A reposter quips appreciation for the "bottlenecks" pun in the lab's name.
