Insurance is an underrated way to unlock secure AI progress.
Insurers are incentivized to truthfully quantify and track risks: if they overstate risks, they get outcompeted; if they understate risks, their payouts bankrupt them.

Ideally, we’d govern AI in a way that both:
- Accelerates AI development and deployment
- Quantifies and prevents the risks that really matter
Insurers want fast AI adoption (they can sell more AI insurance) -- and to avoid serious incidents (they pay the bill)
