Sam Altman to address global leaders on AI risks and opportunities at Paris summit

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman is attending the Paris AI Action Summit, where he will warn global leaders about focusing too narrowly on AI risks. He aims to promote a broader view that includes growth and innovation in AI development. Altman’s participation reflects OpenAI's strategy to engage with policymakers worldwide. He will hold private meetings with officials to discuss AI's impact and promote US-led democratic AI systems as a counter to China's influence. The summit gathers heads of state and tech leaders to shape AI's future. Altman plans to highlight AI's potential benefits while addressing regulatory challenges, particularly in Europe, which may hinder large-scale investments in AI infrastructure.
