What the current evidence supports

Human editorial judgment · 2026-08-20

Track; not yet

Why
It is a credible primary compliance artifact and useful as a mapping template, but it is vendor self-governance with documented permissive thresholds and a live SB 53 compliance dispute — not an external guarantee we can rely on.
Next
Map our own deploy-safety BIL gates against the framework's risk categories and the EU AI Act GPAI 2026-08-02 obligations; treat the framework as a regulatory-translation reference, not an assurance.
