A Multi-Tiered AI Accessibility Model (MAIAM): Proportionate Access and Capability Limits for Comprehensive Frontier AI Safety

arXiv:2610.20921v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Most debate about releasing capable AI systems treats the choice as binary: keep the model behind an API, or publish the weights. That framing runs together two separate decisions. One is how capable a system may become. The other is who may obtain a given capability, and on what terms. This paper is about the second decision. We propose a Multi-Tiered AI Accessibility Model (MAIAM) that sorts access by purpose, safety, and capability instead of by release artifact. Tier 1, AI for Learning, is broadly accessible and deliberately capability-bounde
