Cybersecurity: German AI Security Institute launches in Berlin
With “AISI”, a new authority for evaluating the safety of AI models is launching in Germany. Incidents at Anthropic and OpenAI show just how important risk assessment is for AI.
Germany's new Institute for the Security of Artificial Intelligence has started operating in Berlin. The institute, named AISI Deutschland, was set up to implement a decision made by the National Security Council in June. Its task is to assess the opportunities and risks posed by AI models in Germany and to strengthen the country's resilience in the field of AI.
In its initial phase, the institute will be made up of the Federal Network Agency and the Federal Office for Information Security (BSI), which will focus on cybersecurity and safety aspects, respectively.
