Systematizing the Reporting of AI Red-Teaming
Recommendations to Improve the Transparency and Utility of Test Results

Red-teaming is a key process in evaluating the safety and security of AI systems; however, its qualitative and highly contextualized nature has led to disparate methodologies and reporting practices. In this report, we conduct an interview study with AI red-teaming practitioners to learn about how current testing practices affect reporting, what information different stakeholders find valuable to report, and what challenges might impact efforts to systematize reporting practices. We identify four recurring dimensions that are important to report publicly following an AI red-teaming exercise and suggest ways policymakers and private-sector stakeholders can support the AI test and evaluation ecosystem.

Red-teaming is a popular evaluation methodology for AI systems, but it is still severely lacking in theoretical grounding and technical best practices. This blog introduces the concept of threat modeling for AI red-teaming and explores the ways that software tools can support or hinder red teams. To do effective evaluations, red-team designers should ensure their tools fit with their threat model and their testers.
