Humane Intelligence
Scorecard
Public red-teaming exercises with NIST and IMDA; societal harms rather than catastrophic risk.
Nonprofit, New York, US. Independent referee; listed with independent referees. Confidence med. Domains: misuse, jailbreak.
Conditional floor 8/8 evidenced under the standard policy Scores by preset: Lab procurement 57; Regulator or auditor 57; Public trust 63; Equal weights 56. Weakest evidenced dimension: access depth (lab-granted) 1/4. At least one evidenced dimension at 1: usable with conditions the card names.
What would move the score. Pre-release access for the harms it covers.
- Funding 3 to 4: score 62
- Governance 2 to 3: score 59
- Personnel 2 to 3: score 60
Dissent, lower. Access should be 0. No pre-release access is documented anywhere: the public exercises, bias bounties and NIST and IMDA partnerships tested deployed models, no system card names Humane Intelligence as a pre-release tester, and no lab engagement is on record. The card shows 1 only because the anchor-0 claim lacks a quoted span (C15), not because anything above public access was ever granted.
Dissent, higher. Access should be 2. Humane Intelligence co-ran the NIST ARIA pilot and the Singapore IMDA multilingual red-teaming exercise, in which participating developers supplied models under government programs; A.4 treats government testing agreements as 3. If those exercises gave structured access beyond the public API, even with safeguards on, the documented engagement is at least anchor 2.
Each value is the tightest admissible cap or, with no cap, the highest admissible floor, under RULES.md. The binding signal is highlighted. A dash means no admissible signal sets a bound under the standard policy.
