OpenAI's Sam Altman to Brief UN Security Council Next Week

Sam Altman to Brief UN Security Council on AI Risks

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman will address the UN Security Council next Wednesday during the General Assembly, focusing on international coordination and shared safety standards for AI. The meeting, convened by France and chaired by Foreign Minister Jean-Noël Barrot, comes weeks after industry leaders called for a coordinated slowdown of advanced AI development. Anthropic may also attend, though its participation remains unconfirmed.

The development of superhuman machine intelligence is probably the greatest threat to the continued existence of humanity.

    I find it very hard to understand the things these AI CEO's say.

    He will probably get up there and say his companies products will destroy every citizen of their countries.

    The founder of Loopt is now ruling the world.

    He will probably tell them exactly what they want him to say. If he means it or not. That is hard to say.

    The private equity debt time bomb is here. Then there is the bond market.

    And then guaranteed bust of AI bubble. 2000 billion dollars for a single company? That too when bottom of the boat has been drilled by open weight Chinese models that are cheaper and good enough but can even be deployed locally?

    In face of all that - that kind of return is not realistic.

    However - good gimmick scaring UN asking for a ban on Chinese models perhaps.

    How's AI doing in Russia with all the sanctions and whatnot?
