Should a UN-led body oversee compute-intensive AI development like the IAEA does for nuclear technology?
Demis Hassabis
strongly agrees
and says:
Then what I’d like to see eventually is an equivalent of a CERN for AI safety that does research into that – but internationally. And then maybe there’s some kind of equivalent one day of the IAEA, which actually audits these things. (2023) source Unverified

Should we ban future open-source AI models that can be used to create weapons of mass destruction?
Demis Hassabis
strongly agrees
and says:
endowing rogue nations or terrorists with tools to synthesize a deadly virus. [...] keep the “weights” of the most powerful models out of the public’s hands. (2025) source Unverified

Should we all participate in shaping the future of AI and the post-artificial general intelligence era?
Demis Hassabis
disagrees
and says:
Maybe. I mean, maybe we have to evolve to something else that's better, I don’t know. Like, there's some problems with democracy too. It's not a panacea by any means. I think it was Churchill who said that it's the least-worst form of government, something like that. Maybe there's something better. I can tell you what's going to happen technologically. I think if we do this right, we should end up with radical abundance. If we fix a few of the root-node problems, as I call them. And then there's this political philosophy question. I think that is one of the things people are underestimating. I think we're going to need a new philosophy of how to live. (2025) source Unverified
