Structured analysis to identify, characterize, and prioritize potential harms and risks.
Also in Risk & Assurance
Scenario analysis involves development of several plausible future scenarios, where these scenarios may be generated from varying the assumptions of a small set of driving forces. The scenarios developed can be used to take further actions to improve overall preparedness [107].
For example, scenarios to explore frontier AI risks can be developed, where they can involve different assumptions on factors such as AI capability, ownership, safety, usage, and geopolitical contexts, as well as its implications on key policy issues [203].
Reasoning
Scenario analysis systematically identifies and characterizes potential risks before deployment.

Organizations and governments that develop, deploy, use, and govern AI must coordinate on effective risk mitigation. However, the landscape of AI risk mitigation frameworks is fragmented, uses inconsistent terminology, and has gaps in coverage. This paper introduces a preliminary AI Risk Mitigation Taxonomy to organize AI risk mitigations and provide a common frame of reference. The Taxonomy was developed through a rapid evidence scan of 13 AI risk mitigation frameworks published between 2023-2025, which were extracted into a living database of 831 distinct AI risk mitigations.
