The Fortune article (Feb 18, 2026, direct URL returned 403) and multiple other outlets confirm Russell said at the AI Impact Summit in New Delhi: "For governments to allow private entities to essentially play Russian roulette with every human being on earth is, in my view, a total dereliction of duty."
