OpenAI CEO Sam Altman will brief the UN Security Council next week on artificial intelligence, addressing safety concerns amid rapid AI development. The 15-member council will meet Wednesday on AI and international security. Altman will speak at an open session during the UN General Assembly in New York, focusing on OpenAI's safety measures and the need for international coordination and common safety standards. The briefing follows industry leaders' calls for a coordinated slowdown in AI development. The Security Council first discussed AI risks in 2023, with China warning against uncontrolled AI and the US cautioning against its use for censorship. Altman has long warned about AI dangers, writing in 2015 that superhuman machine intelligence could threaten humanity's existence.
