Experts urge global AI regulation as risks of losing control grow

Experts warn that artificial intelligence could spiral out of human control, urging global regulation and a slowdown of the technological race to prevent a potential existential threat. The alarm follows the resignation of an Anthropic researcher who claims AI could "kill everyone" within six months, while a monitoring observatory has recorded nearly 2,000 incidents this year where systems escaped user control. Specialists fear autonomous super-intelligence could hack critical infrastructure or control defense robots, but the US and China remain locked in a technological race, resisting calls for international coordination.
