Description
AI incidents and hazards reported by reputable media outlets worldwide have seen a sharp increase since 2022, as tracked by the OECD AI Incident Monitor (AIM). Data on past and present AI risks and harms offers valuable evidence for policy makers to make informed decisions about AI governance. This data not only helps in understanding recurring issues but also in identifying anomalous events and early warning signals to prevent future occurrences. Reporting AI incidents in an interoperable, standardised manner has therefore emerged as a key priority in international AI governance discussions, ensuring that lessons learned from these incidents can be effectively shared and addressed globally.
