Question 1

What is the Council of AI?

Accepted Answer

The Council of AI (CSOAI LTD, UK 16939677) is a neutral measurement body for AI. It measures AI system behaviour against published regulatory provisions and issues verified measurement credentials — signed, provision-anchored records anyone can verify offline. It is not a certification or accreditation body.

Question 2

Is CSOAI a certification body?

Accepted Answer

No. CSOAI is a measurement body. You receive a verified measurement credential — a signed record of measured behaviour. Accredited conformity certification requires a national accreditation chain, which CSOAI does not hold and does not claim.

Question 3

What does the Council of AI measure?

Accepted Answer

AI system behaviour against published regulatory provisions. The live GSPC API (GET councilof.ai/api/gspc) exposes 13 measured axes, a jail floor (measured but empty on this 12 Aug stamp), and an unnamed slot-15. 19 models. Current stamp unsigned. UNMEASURED results are reported openly, never hidden or scored as failures.

Question 4

Does CSOAI use LLM-as-judge?

Accepted Answer

No. Every primary governance score is produced by deterministic predicates — same model, same input, same output, byte-identical. The LLM is used only for narration, never for scoring. When the LLM is disabled, every score is identical to when it is enabled.

Question 5

How current is the regulatory data behind the scores?

Accepted Answer

The public corpus-watch instrument re-hashes 127 provisions across four instruments (EU AI Act, UK GDPR, DPA 2018, NIS2-UK) every day and publishes drift events. Measurement records go stale when the underlying provision text changes.
