In the face of artificial intelligence's growing capabilities and prevalence, it was emphasized that global control mechanisms must be established.
Warning of Risk to Humanity
Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei stated that he believes artificial intelligence could pose a risk to all of humanity if mismanaged. OpenAI CEO Sam Altman expressed that they could lose control of the future to artificial intelligence.
