CBRN Risk Modelling and Evaluation

Description du marché

The objective of this lot is to support the AI Office in its enforcement of the AI Act in relation to General-Purpose AI Models (GPAI) and General-Purpose AI Models with systemic risk (GPAISR), specifically where such models may pose risks of enabling chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear attacks or accidents. This includes significantly lowering the barriers to entry for malicious actors, or increasing the potential impact achieved, in the design, development, acquisition, and use of such weapon. The AI Office seeks to improve its capacity in identifying, monitoring, and assessing these risks, including the capacity to measure relevant capabilities of GPAI models and assess the effectiveness of mitigations aimed at preventing malicious actors from gaining access to these capabilities. This lot aims to allow for flexible and close collaboration in developing risk models, prioritising risk scenarios, setting risk levels including a level of unacceptable systemic risk at Union level, identifying key model capabilities that could be linked to risk levels, and tailoring both new and existing risk measurement instruments to the context of the AI Office. Flexible collaboration between the AI Office and the contractor will be needed to ensure robust risk assessment as risks and our understanding of them evolve.
