Interview question · AI Governance, Risk & Compliance

What are frontier safety frameworks such as Anthropic's RSP and OpenAI's Preparedness Framework, and what do they ask of security teams?

Frontier labs promise to add safeguards when models cross capability thresholds. A large share of those safeguards are security controls, and someone has to build and prove them.

What if · the follow-ups in this answer

The answer works through 6 follow-ups like an interviewer would

Your lab's capability evaluations suggest the next model may meet the threshold that the company's published framework links to stronger security safeguards. Launch is planned in eight weeks.

  1. What does the framework require of the security team at this point?
  2. What if dozens of researchers currently have direct read access to the weights storage?
  3. What if an attacker who gains a foothold could stream the weights out over the network?
  4. What if leadership asks whether the safeguards would stop a nation-state?
  5. What if a critical safety incident happens after launch?
  6. How would you prepare the security side of the launch decision?

Each rung has a nudge, a model answer, the principle that carries over and the weak answer to avoid. Premium opens every answer and ladder.
