A Treaty for AI Incidents
Projection: states will negotiate minimum notification duties for cross-border AI incidents touching critical infrastructure, cyber operations, biological risk, or information systems. The practical first treaty is modest: a common taxonomy and a protected technical channel. Shared warning can precede agreement on the rest of AI governance.
Why this idea is here
What the evidence establishes.
The safety report documents cross-border risks and incident-data gaps; the UN panel creates a shared scientific forum for global governance.
