Historic UN Security Council Briefing on AI

Substack · Watch/Read · (gathered 2026-09-26)

  • A “historic” UN Security Council briefing saw leading AI scientists (like Yoshua Bengio) and major AI CEOs (Sam Altman, Dario Amodei, Clement Delangue) largely converge on the urgent need for AI safety measures.
  • A broad consensus emerged on critical safeguards, including “preflight safety testing,” “transparency auditing,” “liability,” “global dialogue,” and “international cooperation.”
  • With this widespread agreement among experts and industry leaders, there is “no excuse not to start implementing” these essential safety protocols immediately to prevent AI from becoming “a risk to humanity as a whole.”
