Detailed Notes

The Singapore AI Safety Institute (AISI) was established in 2024 with an annual budget of S$10M, jointly operated by IMDA and the Digital Trust Centre and hosted at NTU. It covers three core research areas on frontier AI models: red-team evaluation, alignment research, and traceability testing. AISI also serves as the coordination centre for the Singapore Consensus on Global AI Safety Research Priorities and hosts the International Scientific Exchange on AI Safety. In the official account, the Singapore Consensus came out of SCAI: ISE 2025, gathering 100+ participants from 11 countries into a living document; ISE 2026 continues to update the research priorities. It is not an intergovernmental agreement "signed by 11 countries." AISI is the most critical institution in Singapore's strategy of "leveraging 0.07% of the world's population into G7-level AI governance influence."
