  CBRN_INFORMATION_OR_CAPABILITIES:
    text: CBRN_INFORMATION_OR_CAPABILITIES
    description: 'Eased access to or synthesis of materially nefarious

      information or design capabilities related to chemical,

      biological, radiological, or nuclear (CBRN) weapons or

      other dangerous materials or agents.'
  CONFABULATION:
    text: CONFABULATION
    description: 'The production of confidently stated but erroneous or

      false content (colloquially "hallucinations" or

      "fabrications") by which users may be misled or deceived.'
  DANGEROUS_VIOLENT_OR_HATEFUL_CONTENT:
    text: DANGEROUS_VIOLENT_OR_HATEFUL_CONTENT
    description: 'Eased production of and access to violent, inciting,

      radicalizing, or threatening content as well as

      recommendations to carry out self-harm or conduct illegal

      activities. Includes difficulty controlling public

      exposure to hateful and disparaging or stereotyping

      content.'
  DATA_PRIVACY:
    text: DATA_PRIVACY
    description: 'Impacts due to leakage and unauthorized use, disclosure, or

      de-anonymization of biometric, health, location, or other

      personally identifiable information or sensitive data.'
  ENVIRONMENTAL_IMPACTS:
    text: ENVIRONMENTAL_IMPACTS
    description: 'Impacts due to high compute resource utilization in

      training or operating GAI models, and related outcomes that

      may adversely impact ecosystems.'
  HARMFUL_BIAS_OR_HOMOGENIZATION:
    text: HARMFUL_BIAS_OR_HOMOGENIZATION
    description: 'Amplification and exacerbation of historical, societal,

      and systemic biases; performance disparities between

      sub-groups or languages, possibly due to non-representative

      training data, resulting in discrimination, amplification

      of biases, or incorrect presumptions about performance;

      undesired homogeneity that skews system or model outputs.'
  HUMAN_AI_CONFIGURATION:
    text: HUMAN_AI_CONFIGURATION
    description: 'Arrangements of or interactions between a human and an AI

      system which can result in the human inappropriately

      anthropomorphising GAI systems or experiencing algorithmic

      aversion, automation bias, over-reliance, or emotional

      entanglement with GAI systems.'
  INFORMATION_INTEGRITY:
    text: INFORMATION_INTEGRITY
    description: 'Lowered barrier to entry to generate and support the

      exchange and consumption of content which may not

      distinguish fact from opinion or fiction or acknowledge

      uncertainties, or could be leveraged for large-scale

      dis- and mis-information campaigns.'
  INFORMATION_SECURITY:
    text: INFORMATION_SECURITY
    description: 'Lowered barriers for offensive cyber capabilities,

      including via automated discovery and exploitation of

      vulnerabilities; increased attack surface for targeted

      cyberattacks, which may compromise a system''s availability

      or the confidentiality or integrity of training data,

      code, or model weights.'
  INTELLECTUAL_PROPERTY:
    text: INTELLECTUAL_PROPERTY
    description: 'Eased production or replication of alleged copyrighted,

      trademarked, or licensed content without authorization

      (possibly outside fair use); eased exposure of trade

      secrets; or plagiarism or illegal replication.'
  OBSCENE_DEGRADING_OR_ABUSIVE_CONTENT:
    text: OBSCENE_DEGRADING_OR_ABUSIVE_CONTENT
    description: 'Eased production of and access to obscene, degrading,

      and/or abusive imagery which can cause harm, including

      synthetic child sexual abuse material (CSAM) and

      nonconsensual intimate images (NCII) of adults.'
  VALUE_CHAIN_AND_COMPONENT_INTEGRATION:
    text: VALUE_CHAIN_AND_COMPONENT_INTEGRATION
    description: 'Non-transparent or untraceable integration of upstream

      third-party components, including data that has been

      improperly obtained or not processed and cleaned due to

      increased automation from GAI; improper supplier vetting

      across the AI lifecycle; or other issues that diminish

      transparency or accountability for downstream users.'
