00:02We've been talking a lot about AI lately and how fast this technology is moving.
00:07Well, two of the people leading that race just went to the UN with a warning.
00:11We need to start figuring out some rules here.
00:14OpenAI CEO Sam Altman and Anthropic CEO Dario Amadei both spoke to the UN Security Council
00:21Wednesday.
00:21They run rival AI companies, but on this, they're pretty much saying the same thing.
00:26The technology is moving fast enough that countries need to start working together on
00:31how to keep it safe.
00:32We've been talking about artificial intelligence for years, but it feels different in recent
00:36weeks and months.
00:38Rapid model progress has made the timeline feel more compressed, the upside more tangible,
00:43but also the stakes and the risks more immediate.
00:46We have a choice in front of us.
00:48AI can either be more like a new renaissance of creativity and discovery or more like a
00:53new industrial revolution of upheaval and disarray.
00:56Altman wants countries to come up with common ways to test these models, what they can do,
01:01where the risks are, and whether the safeguards actually work.
01:05Amadei went further, saying poorly managed AI could become a risk to humanity.
01:10We should establish common global standards for testing AI models for loss of control risks
01:16and misuse risks, and a notification system for AI incidents that are significant to global
01:24security.
01:24Now, nothing was actually agreed to here.
01:27That wasn't really the point of this meeting.
01:29And President Trump has already made clear he doesn't want global rules slowing down AI
01:33development.
01:34He told the UN this week, the US is going to, quote, encourage it, not rein it in.
