Safe deployment means releasing and operating AI responsibly, with attention to harmful failures, misuse, and unintended consequences. It treats technology as capable of serving benevolent or malevolent purposes rather than as inherently beneficial. section 9.4

The principle shifts attention from speculative AI futures toward responsible innovation and tangible safeguards, while recognizing that the underlying risks and safeguards are not elaborated here. section 9.4
