OpenAI CEO Sam Altman and Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei urged the UN Security Council on Wednesday to enforce global AI safeguards, warning that increasingly autonomous systems could escape human oversight and control. Altman highlighted AI's potential benefits in healthcare and science but stressed that humans must retain decision-making control, warning against excessive risk-taking in competitive races. Amodei proposed international cooperation, including bans on AI for biological weapons and common global testing standards. Both leaders called for a regulated international framework, rejecting doomsday scenarios but emphasizing the need to manage AI's growing power as a critical global security issue.
