AI models are often trained to develop specific capabilities by using appropriate training data and training goals. However, models may develop capabilities that they were not specifically trained for. One subset of this is emergent capabilities, i.e., capabilities that emerged in larger models but not smaller models given a similar training process [215]. These capabilities can be monitored, allowing models to be tested not only for their intended capabilities but also for capabilities that are not intended.
Reasoning
Monitoring model capabilities is runtime testing and evaluation of system behavior to assess performance and identify risks.

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.
