Should AI firms face a penalty if they break their safety promises?

It calls for outside checks, but sets no clear rule for when work must stop, adds no penalty for breaking its promises, and does not require public safety reports. Who checks the evidence? Who can stop an unsafe release? And what do you want the rules to be?
