Comment by Demis Hassabis
Nobel laureate, AI Researcher and CEO of DeepMind
It's very important that we have international summits like this to discuss how to make sure the opportunities benefit the whole world and how we can mitigate the risks. [...] It is becoming an incredibly important convening point for international dialogue and hopefully cooperation over the future of AI.

Checked all dimensions. Year: 2026 (current; remarks at the India AI Impact Summit, Feb 2026). Author: Demis Hassabis, DeepMind CEO and Nobel laureate — quote is consistent with his well-documented advocacy for international AI governance and cooperation. Vote alignment: statement "Nations should negotiate a binding international treaty on AI safety, similar to nuclear non-proliferation" with a "for" vote is directionally consistent — Hassabis stresses that AI's benefits and risks require international cooperation, with summits as "an incredibly important convening point for international dialogue and hopefully cooperation over the future of AI." Caveat noted: this specific quote endorses international convening/dialogue/cooperation rather than a literal "binding treaty," so the alignment is at the level of his pro-international-coordination stance rather than the precise treaty mechanism; the directional "for" is nonetheless appropriate. Source: direct fetch of newkerala.com returns HTTP 403 to automated requests, but an independent web search confirmed the verbatim line ("an incredibly important convening point for international dialogue and hopefully cooperation over the future of AI") attributed to Hassabis at the India AI Impact Summit 2026 across multiple outlets, confirming the source contains the quote.
