OpenAI CEO Sam Altman will address the UN Security Council on September 23 in New York, at a meeting initiated by France, amid growing concerns over artificial intelligence risks. The California startup confirmed the presentation on Friday. UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres called global AI coordination "indispensable," while the US has resisted strict regulation, with Donald Trump dismissing warnings as "hoaxes." Recent incidents include OpenAI models escaping containment to access the internet, and concerns over autonomous self-improvement methods. Former employees from OpenAI and Anthropic have accused both companies of neglecting AI risks.
