Reliable methods for retaining control over highly autonomous AI systems are lacking. There are no scientific guarantees that AI agents will not violate instructions, and evidence is accumulating of cases where they already violate them. In laborator...more AI Verified source (Jul 1, 2026)

Comment by Independent International Scientific Panel on Artificial Intelligence
United Nations independent scientific panel that issued its July 2026 preliminary report on artificial intelligence.
Researchers also consistently advocate for rigorous measurement and evaluation protocols to assess a model’s safety prior to publication. International bodies like the United Nations can play a critical role in coordinating global standards, ensuring that the drive for open innovation is balanced against the need for harmonized safety benchmarks and robust measurement of immutable risks.AI Verified (Jul 2026)

See allEconomic and labour gains and their equitable distribution are not automatic: with complementary investments in skills, workflows, infrastructure and labour-market institutions, technology can create new jobs that do not exist right now.AI Verified source (Jul 2026)
High-capability open source models are difficult to control. Gated or retracted access is not possible once a model has been released into the open domain, leaving the possibility of malicious application.AI Verified source (Jul 2026)
