Frontier Safety Frameworks (RSP / Preparedness / FSF)
Lab self-governance: capability thresholds & ASL/risk tiers
Anthropic's Responsible Scaling Policy (ASL levels), OpenAI's Preparedness Framework, and Google DeepMind's Frontier Safety Framework are the voluntary risk-tiering commitments that gate frontier deployment on CBRN, cyber, and autonomy evaluations. Anthropic activated ASL-3 safeguards for Claude in 2025. These frameworks are the de facto private regulatory regime of the frontier.
