Responsible GenAI Use During Active Armed Conflict: Evidence from Sudan's Emergency Response Rooms

Read the original on arXiv AI →

The study investigates how community‑led humanitarian responders in Sudan’s Emergency Response Rooms use Generative AI during armed conflict. Through surveys and interviews, it finds that responders rely on GenAI when human expertise is hard to reach, yet they warn that the technology cannot independently capture rapidly changing local conditions and may lead to harmful decisions if not verified. Risks also arise before use, such as exposure to danger from carrying devices or sharing sensitive information, and concerns that AI‑assisted reports could damage credibility with donors.

Who Can Evaluate AI Independently? A Framework for Analysing Evaluation Infrastructure

The paper "Who Can Evaluate AI Independently? A Framework for Analysing Evaluation Infrastructure" introduces the PAAI framework—Power, Access, Adequacy, Independence—to assess who controls AI evaluation infrastructure and how that shapes independent evaluation. Applying PAAI to twelve African AI evaluation projects and three joint testing exercises of the AI Safety Institutes, the authors identify three recurring configurations: extractive collaboration, dependent innovation, and constrained independence. The study finds that African actors often provide data and expertise while external institutions retain control over infrastructure and evaluation frameworks, and that participation alone does not confer evaluative authority.
