Google’s latest AI model is missing a key safety report in apparent violation of promises made to the U.S. government and at international summits

Quick Summary:

These slipping standards could be driven by a growing concern among tech countries and some governments that AI safety procedures are getting in the way of innovation.In the U.S., the Trump administration has signalled that it plans to approach AI regulation with a significantly lighter touch than the Biden administration.

The companies also committed to “explain how, if at all, external actors, such as governments, civil society, academics, and the public are involved in the process of assessing risks of their AI models.” Google is potentially in violation of that commitment too by not answering direct questions on whether it has submitted Gemini 2.5 Pro to either U.S.or U.K.government evaluators.

Then, at an international summit on AI safety held in Seoul, South Korea, in May 2024, the company reiterated similar promises—committing to publicly disclose model capabilities, limitations, appropriate and inappropriate use cases, and to provide transparency around its risk assessments and outcomes.
