Yep, conflict of interest is the elephant in the room and its absence from the "reducing risks from advanced AI" point list is conspicuous:

* Figuring out how to prevent the incentives of frontier AI labs from aligning with anti-social deployment of AI rather than pro-social deployment of AI

It's not like the AI can simply advise them how to fix this because the labs already understood this risk perfectly well before they had an incentive not to. They put in place organizational structures to control it and then promptly smashed the structures once they smelled money. They already failed the integrity check. Even if their AI told them what they didn't want to hear I'm sure they would ignore it. Maybe they already have.
