Summary
Meta's open-weight-frontier governance posture. Categorises frontier models into 'high risk' + 'critical risk' tiers; the framework's distinctive feature is its explicit defence of open-weight release as a governance posture (vs. the closed-model stance of Anthropic / OpenAI / DeepMind). Pre-release threat modelling + post-release monitoring; commits to halt training if critical-risk threshold reached without mitigations. Seoul Frontier AI Safety Commitments signatory. Currency (2026-06-21): On 2026-04-08 Meta released the Advanced AI Scaling Framework v2.0, superseding/renaming the original Frontier AI Framework — it adds a 'Loss of Control' risk domain alongside Cybersecurity and Chemical & Biological, strengthens deployment-decision criteria, and introduces public Safety & Preparedness Reports (per ai.meta.com/blog/scaling-how-we-build-test-advanced-ai). Note: the framework was first published 2025-02-03 (not Feb 2024 as recorded).
