While there is emerging consensus on the need for a universal regulatory framework for #AI to address concerns surrounding ethical standards, data privacy and potential misuse, the first steps in this arena seem to be faltering with the EU’s landmark AI Act coming under pressure from governments and technology companies alike.
Striking a balance between fostering innovation and addressing ethical concerns within an international framework is proving complicated, given varying perspectives and economic interests.
Yet cross-border coordination remains a necessary – and, in some cases, the only – path to address the global risks that threaten human prosperity and security.

🏞️ 🗺️ 📍 National and local regulations are identified as key for driving action on a number of economic risks.
National governments have the power to act against Illicit economic activity and reduce their countries’ vulnerability to organized crime.
Localized strategies that address global risks at a local level require little or no cross-border coordination.
They are concerned mainly with increasing a community's preparedness to bear the effects of inevitable global risks, but do not significantly mitigate their impact beyond national borders.

🕵️♀️ 🤷 ❓ When looking at the five-year window, the number of claims exposed and the overall number of records are going down for large companies.
Potential speculation is the large proportion of ransomware and BEC claims since 2020 do not involve exposed records. Perhaps the lack of utility of per record metrics is causing insurers to be less concerned with the number of records than they once were.
Also, it appears the number of records exposed does not correlate well with either the size of an organization or the total incident cost.
