Comment by Jasjeet Sekhon

Chief Strategy Officer at Google DeepMind; commenter on the July 2026 Pacing the Frontier statement.
We have found a way to turn energy into compute, and compute into intelligence. The benefits will be enormous, from curing diseases to understanding the cosmos. We can capture the benefits of the coming intelligence explosion while managing its risks, but only if we build the tools to pace the frontier of the riskiest capabilities before we need them, so we protect people and keep the social trust that innovation depends on. I believe smart technical and governance tools will be needed to sustain rapid innovation, vigorous competition, and robust safety.
