AI Policy Tuesday: Regulating Catastrophic AI Risk Through Liability Insurance

​Kathrin Gardhouse presents her draft paper on how liability insurance could function as a form of private regulation for frontier AI, translating catastrophic risk into enforceable safety standards rather than box-ticking compliance. The talk outlines a proposed “minimum insurability pathway” for AI developers and explores whether and how a narrow, restrictive insurance mandate could meaningfully reduce catastrophic AI risks while complementing public regulation.
