Former head of Safeguards Research Team at Anthropic; AI safety researcher
The world is in peril. And not just from AI, or bioweapons, but from a whole series of interconnected crises unfolding in this very moment. We appear to be approaching a threshold where our wisdom must grow in equal measure to our capacity to affect the world, lest we face the consequences.AI Verified source (2026)

Verified. The exact two-sentence passage appears verbatim in The Independent’s February 13, 2026 report, which attributes it to Mrinank Sharma’s resignation letter. Semafor’s February 11, 2026 article on the same resignation also confirms Sharma said the world was “in peril,” though Semafor does not print the full passage itself.
