AI executives call for global cooperation on AI safety at UN

Executives from OpenAI, Anthropic, and Hugging Face addressed the UN Security Council, urging international cooperation to manage risks from increasingly autonomous AI systems. Sam Altman called for US-led global standards and democratic governance of AI, while Dario Amodei warned of existential risks and called for a ban on AI-enabled biological weapons. The appeals came ahead of the UN General Assembly where President Trump indicated reluctance to restrict AI development.
