OpenAI CEO Sam Altman warns UN Security Council on AI risks

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman warned the UN Security Council about the potential dangers of AI, stating that humanity could "lose control of the future to AI." He highlighted the risk of AI advancing so rapidly that people might struggle to comprehend or intervene effectively. This warning underscores concerns about the speed of AI development and its implications for human oversight, as reported by C-SPAN.

This marks the first time an OpenAI CEO has directly addressed the UN Security Council, unlike previous engagements that were typically with national governments or industry groups.
