OpenAI, Anthropic, Hugging Face leaders urge UN toward global AI safety standards
At a UN conference, Sam Altman, Dario Amodei and Clement Delangue called for internationally coordinated standards to evaluate AI capabilities and risks, arguing decisions about the technology should not rest solely with labs in San Francisco. Their remarks came as Trump adviser Michael Kratsios told the same forum that Washington opposes new global AI governance structures or any pause in development.
GoKawiil's interpretation of the reporting above, not reported fact.
The split exposes a widening gap between AI developers pressing for shared oversight and the US government, which frames rapid AI progress as a strategic advantage over China. Whether any coordinated standards emerge may depend on whether governments, especially the US, see regulation as compatible with maintaining competitive edge, according to the positions voiced at the UN.
- AI company leaders including Altman and Amodei want international standards for risk evaluation and safety.
- Trump adviser Michael Kratsios rejected new global AI governance at the same UN conference.
- The disagreement reflects tension between safety-focused coordination and US strategic competition with China.
