How we record commitments

How we track public security commitments

What We Track

This record tracks public security commitments stated by:

Companies and other organizations developing frontier models
National governments and regulatory bodies
International organizations and multilateral agreements

A commitment qualifies for inclusion if it is publicly stated, specific enough to be verifiable, and relates to security risk from advanced AI systems.

Status Definitions

Kept	The commitment has been fulfilled as stated. Evidence demonstrates complete implementation.
In progress	Active work toward fulfilling the commitment. Partial implementation or ongoing efforts are documented.
Partially kept	Some aspects of the commitment have been fulfilled, but significant parts remain incomplete or modified.
Broken	The commitment has not been fulfilled and available evidence suggests it will not be.
Quietly revised	The original commitment has been modified or reinterpreted without explicit public announcement.
Unclear/unverifiable	Insufficient public information exists to determine whether the commitment has been kept.

Sourcing Standards

Every status assessment is backed by documented evidence:

Primary sources: Official statements, published policies, technical documentation from the committing entity
Independent verification: Third-party audits, government reports, and published technical reviews
Investigative reporting: Journalism from established outlets with editorial standards

Each status update must cite at least one source. We prioritize official documentation and verifiable evidence over secondary commentary.

Update Process

Status changes are made when new evidence demonstrates a material change in implementation. Minor updates (e.g., timeline adjustments within expected bounds) are noted but may not trigger a status change.

We review high-profile commitments quarterly and update the record as new information becomes available.

Corrections Policy

We correct errors promptly. If you believe a status assessment is inaccurate or have evidence we should consider, email [email protected] with:

The specific commitment in question
The proposed correction
Supporting evidence with links to sources

All corrections are reviewed and, if warranted, updated within 7 days. We maintain a changelog visible in each commitment's evidence timeline.

Limitations

This record tracks public commitments only. Internal security measures, classified government programs, and private agreements are not included unless publicly disclosed.

Status assessments reflect the best available public evidence at the time of evaluation. Some commitments may be fulfilled in ways not visible to external observers.
