MIT AI Incident Tracker

This is like an aviation incident log, but for AI: a central place where real-world AI failures, harms, and near-misses are collected, labeled, and analyzed so others can learn from them and avoid repeating the same mistakes.

Executive Brief

Business Problem Solved

Organizations deploying AI lack a structured, evidence-based view of how AI systems fail in the real world—across industries and use cases. This tool aggregates and categorizes AI incidents so leaders, regulators, and practitioners can understand common failure modes, benchmark their own risk controls, and design safer AI deployments (including in high-risk sectors like mining).

Value Drivers

Risk Mitigation: Reduces likelihood of repeat AI failures by learning from prior incidents.Regulatory Readiness: Supports compliance, governance, and audit narratives with documented incident patterns.Faster Safety Design: Provides templates and precedents for risk assessments and safety reviews.Reputation Protection: Helps anticipate and prevent high-profile AI mishaps that could damage brand and stakeholder trust.

Strategic Moat

Curated, structured incident data and taxonomy developed by a reputable research institution (MIT), plus network effects as more organizations and researchers contribute and rely on the shared incident corpus.

Scalability Bottleneck

Data collection and curation volume/quality—scaling depends on continuous, reliable reporting and consistent taxonomy management rather than pure compute.

Differentiation Factor

Unlike generic AI risk commentary, this focuses on structured, incident-level evidence (who/what/where/why) that can be queried, analyzed, and used to inform concrete safety practices and governance frameworks across industries, including high-risk domains such as mining and heavy industry.
