Resolving these questions obviously cannot and should not be left to technologists alone. It requires every part of society to come together to help define this new chapter.

Frontier labs would initially share their models with the body voluntarily, up to 30 days before release, for safety testing that probes dangerous cyber, biological and deception capabilities.

Model assessments should include rigorous scientific evaluations of capabilities in cybersecurity, biological threats and other high-risk domains. Specific agentic AI tests could look for attempts to bypass safety guardrails or signs of deception, an...

It is designed to keep up with the field’s acceleration and adapt to the biggest risks as they are identified, and could be ratcheted up if the seriousness of the situation demands, including coordinating a slowdown in development among the Frontier ...

It's very important that we have international summits to bring the international community together [...] make sure the opportunities benefit the whole world

If we can, maybe it would be good to have a slightly slower pace than we’re currently predicting, [...] so that we can get this right societally. [...] I think so. [...] international collaboration.

We are standing in the foothills of the singularity. [...] I think what we're seeing is soft self-improvement, in the sense of these coding agents are making engineers much more productive.

So I think we'll solve it if we get our act together, we do this internationally, put all the best minds on it, we get going now... And I think given sufficient time with sufficient brain power — I believe in human ingenuity — I think we'll get this ...

If a critical flaw or exploit is discovered in an open-source AI system, there is no centralized recall mechanism.

Yeah, I think those systems would be right on the boundary. So I think most emergent systems, cellular automata, things like that could be model-able by a classical system. You just sort of do a forward simulation of it and it’d probably be efficient...

I would advocate for a kind of CERN for AGI, and by that, I mean a kind of international research-focused high-end collaboration on the frontiers of AGI development to try and make that as safe as possible. You would also have to pair it with a kind...

I sometimes talk about setting up an international CERN equivalent for AI where all the best minds in the world would collaborate together and do the final steps in a very rigorous scientific way involving all of society, maybe philosophers and socia...

Then what I’d like to see eventually is an equivalent of a Cern for AI safety that does research into that – but internationally.
