Europe enters the AI era over-regulated and under-industrialized, imports the vast majority of its advanced semiconductors, pays materially higher industrial electricity prices than the U.S., and still relies on American cloud providers for the bulk ... more Unverified source (2026)

trying to decouple wholesale from US cloud risks hurting European competitiveness more than it helps sovereignty. Unverified source (2025)

we would indeed see significant (read: multi-year) restraint on the development of artificial superintelligence while we improve our understanding of how to ensure its safety. [...] A wiser and more coordinated civilization would likely be employing ... more Unverified source (2026)

Developing superintelligence is not like playing Russian roulette; it is more like undergoing risky surgery for a condition that will otherwise prove fatal. [...] Models incorporating safety progress, temporal discounting, quality-of-life differentia... more Unverified source (2026)

The governance of superintelligence has to represent the stakeholders of Earth—all people. AI companies cannot grade their own homework. They cannot be allowed to hold so much power that they eclipse democracy. Unverified source (2026)

AI deepfakes that impersonate physicians are not just scams—they are a public health and safety crisis. When bad actors exploit a doctor's identity, they undermine patient trust and can steer people toward harmful, unproven care. Unverified source (2026)

Without provisions that allow for fair use and free expression online, this legislation would dramatically change the internet. Unverified source (2024)

The events around Tumbler Ridge are as clear as possible a demonstration of the moral hazard that comes with centralizing authority over safety at a place like OpenAI. Unverified source (2026)

Industry leaders like Anthropic, Google DeepMind, Microsoft, and OpenAI—a strategic cohort that has been responsibly transparent and repeatedly explicit about the compounding AI crisis of control—must form a coalition of the willing to lead their ind... more Unverified source (2026)

A [central] problem with regulating frontier AI models is that a new feature emerges in these systems that is not tested, testable. [...] As long as you have this new emergent power, you have deep reasoning, deep capabilities, and they will make mist... more Unverified source (2026)

There is even a growing tendency among political and military leaders to shirk responsibility, as decisions about life and death are increasingly "delegated" to machines. [...] [This represents] an unprecedented destructive betrayal of the legal and ... more Unverified source (2026)

At first, lethal autonomous weapons systems that cannot guarantee use in conformity with international humanitarian law — that is, systems that are intrinsically indiscriminate; systems whose effects cannot be limited, anticipated and controlled; sys... more AI Verified source (2025)

To the second part of your question, I am strongly in favor of discussions internationally about things like norms. I think with this point, it would be counterproductive to have outright bans on things that people don't even fully understand what th... more AI Verified source (2019)

I think this is crazy... like selling nuclear weapons to North Korea and bragging, oh yeah, Boeing made the case. Unverified source (2026)

Conceding an entire market the size of China probably does not make a lot of strategic sense, so I think that has already largely backfired. Maybe it made sense at the time, but I think the policy really needs to be dynamic and needs to stay with the... more Unverified source (2026)

If you ever went out with a car that had no brake, boy, you are in trouble if you go down a hill. But you're in even more trouble if there's no steering wheel. [...] They want a very fast car with no steering wheel. Unverified source (2026)

The question that people are debating is whether it makes sense to regulate research and development of AI. And I don't think it does. Unverified source (2023)

Some good news in alignment: as models become more capable, they are also more aligned, across multiple measures, including spec compliance. However, the improvement is not sufficient to match the higher stakes that come up with improved capabilities... more Unverified source (2026)

[The companies are] deadly serious about building machines that can outperform humans at everything, and [...] deadly serious that they don't know if they'll be able to control the machines they create. Unverified source (2026)

A different future is one where we think carefully about issues of accountability and liability and recognize that the companies and organizations creating these systems should bear some accountability when the systems fail or go awry. We have very w... more Unverified source (2026)

This [...] legislation could [...] subjecting [...] to lawsuits [...]. The bill is overly broad [...] subject to litigation. [...] could subject online services to costly [...] lawsuits. Unverified source (2023)

We are moving toward a world where universal basic income could become a reality, while at the same time AI may create levels of wealth we have never seen before, including the rise of trillionaires. Unverified source (2026)

Whether AI's benefits are widely shared is a political question, has nothing to do with technology. Unverified source (2026)

Intelligence without rules and rails is a dangerous blind spot. [...] Governance isn't a feature. It's the whole ball game. Because without it, your whole company can come down. Unverified source (2026)

There's not one big magic red button that blows up the data centre, which I think some people sort of assume exists. Verified source (2026)

If a government AI kill switch already existed, would the current DOD or current administration have used it, or the threat of it, against Anthropic? Could they use it to coerce AI companies into behaviors that are counter to the public interest? Unverified source (2026)

There is no upper limit on how intelligent AIs will get or on how good robots will get, and I believe the advances will not plateau before exceeding human levels. [...] AI capabilities will allow us to make far more goods and services with less labor... more Unverified source (2026)

I do not believe there's going to be like a singular, identifiable point where the economy is going to take off, and there's going to be abundance. [Whether AI's benefits are widely shared] is a political question, has nothing to do with technology. Unverified source (2026)

Normalizing the use of AI in our media ecosystem broadly, but certainly in our political information system, absolutely carries the risk of undermining trust and belief and the trust that is so critical in our information and our media ecosystem. Unverified source (2026)

While there are many problems with this proposal, a few stand above the others and are fatal to this effort. First, the Commission lacks statutory authority to require disclosure or disclaimers on political advertisements that utilize “artificial int... more Unverified source (2024)
