Conflict of interest. This site uses Claude, by Anthropic, to read and summarise texts; Anthropic is one of the companies on this page. Claude gives no judgements or rankings. The categories of the Seoul safety frameworks (e.g. «does not cover severe risks») come from Claude's reading of the documents: the document is linked on each company's page.

Public commitments and signature status. Official lists have no dates: for names that appeared after our first reading of the list, the day we first saw them.

3 · What it wrote and changed

Under the Seoul commitments the companies promised to publish, by the Paris summit (10-11 February 2025), a safety framework on severe risks, with the thresholds beyond which they consider them intolerable.

Risk thresholds

formerly «Risk Management Framework»; the first draft came after the Paris summit (10-11 February 2025)

6 · What we cannot see

  • internal documents and unpublished safety evaluations;
  • versions of documents that no archive saved;
  • “no document found” is the result of a search, not proof that the document does not exist;
  • signatory lists often have no dates: the date is the day we first saw the name;
  • incidents the press does not report: the best-known companies have more recorded incidents because they are talked about more;
  • many incidents do not have a severity yet;
  • Chinese companies publish less in English and some of their commitments are read from third-party sources (AGORA).
