Their Domain Taxonomy categorizes AI risks into 7 broad domains and 23 more specific subdomains. For example, "Misinformation" is one of the domains, while "False or misleading information" is one of its subdomains.

Risk Attribution in AI Systems: Intentional vs Unintentional
By
–
Four insights from this analysis (1/2): 51% of the risks extracted were attributed to AI systems, while 34% were attributed to humans. Slightly more risks were presented as being unintentional (37%) than intentional (35%). Six times more risks were presented as occurring

Taxonomic Framework for AI Risk Categorization: Entity, Intent, Timing
By
–
To organize their findings, the researchers adapt two existing frameworks into taxonomies for categorizing the identified risks. Their Causal Taxonomy categorizes risks based on three factors:
1. The Entity involved
2. The Intent behind the risk
3. The Timing of its occurrence -

Matrix Powers and Graph Walks in AI Algorithms
By
–
According to Danka, the directed graph representation is beneficial because the powers of the matrix correspond to walks in the graph. W/i the elements of the square matrix, all possible 2-step walks are accounted for in the sum defining the elements of A².

In another, the algorithm guided the machine to improve at sweeping toys into a bin w/i about 2 hours.
