ACM FAccT 2027

Why it matters
June 21, 2027 - June 24, 2027
Scheduled event

ACM FAccT 2027 convenes interdisciplinary research on responsible, safe, ethical, and trustworthy computing. Its official scope includes AI red teaming and adversarial testing, assurance and deployment policy, audits, model and system evaluation, governance, sociotechnical safety, and threat models and mitigations.

My takeaway: Use FAccT to test whether technical red-team findings connect to affected people, deployment context, accountable owners, and measurable assurance evidence. Keep normative arguments distinct from empirical results, and prioritize work with explicit methods, limitations, and artifacts.
Keep exploring

Pacing model development in an era of cyber-critical capabilities

OpenAI says preliminary evidence that Astra may meet its Critical cybersecurity threshold led it to pause frontier reinforcement-learning work for two weeks and keep its largest planned run on hold. New safeguards include stronger workload and network isolation, continuous boundary testing, token-level monitoring that escalates suspicious tool activity, and broader alignment checks for deception, reward hacking, and unauthorized access.

OWASP Top 10 for Agentic Applications for 2026

OWASP's community guide organizes agentic-system risk into ten categories, including goal hijacking, tool misuse, identity and privilege abuse, memory poisoning, insecure inter-agent communication, cascading failures, and rogue-agent behavior. It provides a shared taxonomy and mitigation starting point rather than a certification checklist or evidence that a deployed system is secure.

A blueprint for democratic governance of frontier AI

OpenAI proposes a three-part U.S. frontier-AI governance model: harmonize emerging state safety laws into a federal baseline, strengthen CAISI as an evaluation and standards institution, and coordinate a broader resilience program. Proposed controls include severe-risk evaluations, transparency reports, independent audits, safety-incident reporting, model-weight security, whistleblower protection, and periodic technical assessments.
