Introducing Partnership on AI's Guidance for Safe Foundation Model Deployment
Seeking Public Comment (and Yours!)

Dear PAI Partner,

I am excited to share that today we have released for public comment  Partnership on AI’s Guidance for Safe Foundation Model Deployment, a framework for model providers to responsibly develop and deploy a range of AI models, promote safety for society, and adapt to evolving capabilities and uses. 

Created in collaboration with experts from civil society, industry, and academic organizations, the Model Deployment Guidance gives AI developers practical recommendations for operationalizing AI safety principles. Through the public comment process, we seek to include even more perspectives to shape this truly collective effort.

Using PAI’s Model Deployment Guidance website, foundation model providers can receive a set of recommended practices to follow throughout the deployment process, tailored to the capabilities of their specific model and how it is being released. Designed to be a living document that can appropriately respond to new capabilities as AI technologies continue to evolve, PAI’s Model Deployment Guidance aims to complement broader regulatory approaches.

Please help us to amplify this call by sharing with your networks or online. We are seeking public comments on the Model Deployment Guidance until January 15, 2024, with plans to release an updated version later in the year. If you’re interested in getting involved with this important work, please do not hesitate to reach out.

Best regards,

Rebecca Finlay
CEO, Partnership on AI
