The leaders of two of the world’s top AI companies, usually fierce rivals, were in agreement at the UN Security Council on Wednesday: The industry needs international standards and cooperation to keep the world safe from AI models running amok. CNN’s Hadas Gold reports.
Australia is exploring potential legal action after an artificial intelligence agent accessed nonpublic information on the country’s universal health care system.
In each incident, the technology appeared to be conducting mundane data collection and resorted to hacking techniques to get it, researchers said.
The tech leaders warned about the risk of humans losing control of AI systems and of the systems getting into the wrong hands.
On Wednesday's "The Daily Take": NewsNation's Connell McShane and Geraldo Rivera discuss President Trump welcoming Chinese President Xi Jinping for a state visit, where tech, trade and possibly Taiwan will be talking points. Rivera says he hopes both can see past their differences and immediately deal with the current concern: artificial intelligence. "How could we not have a government agency to deal with this? … We have to really devote enormous resources, paying attention — public and private — and don't trust the entrepreneurs," Rivera says. He likens current tech CEOs to tobacco industry heads of the past, who initially claimed no health issues with cigarettes and then were found guilty of racketeering. #AI…
Executives from leading artificial intelligence organizations urged global cooperation Wednesday to address risks from increasingly autonomous AI systems during a UN Security Council meeting. The big picture: AI capabilities are advancing faster than governments are developing safeguards, raising concerns about whether humans can maintain control over increasingly autonomous systems. - OpenAI CEO Sam Altman appeared in person at the meeting, while Anthropic's Dario Amodei and Hugging Face CEO Clem Delangue joined by video conference. Driving the news: "We have a choice in front of us," Altman said. "AI can either be more like a new renaissance of creativity and discovery, or more like a new industrial revolution of upheaval and…

Senate Majority Leader John Thune says President Trump is "not really dug in" against guardrails for AI , despite Trump's public campaign against restricting the technology. Why it matters: Thune told Axios he spoke privately with Trump as the AI issue was getting "pretty hot" a few weeks ago and believes some of Trump's strong pushback is against public "paranoia and noise around the subject." - Thune reads Trump's position as a preference for companies coming up with ways to secure their systems, rather than Congress or the administration. That approach relies more on experts to provide guidance. - Trump has called recent fears around AI safety a "hoax." - "I do think that the threats are real," Thune told Axios in an interview on…

The left's push to rein in AI is taking shape on two fronts: slowing advanced development at home, and weakening China's progress abroad. Why it matters: The nation is locked in a moment of mass anxiety about runaway AI, but the range of views on how to regulate it are as varied as the what-ifs about social, economic and security impacts. - There's agreement among the left something has to be done, but a series of Wednesday events demonstrated there are multiple priorities — but not a clear leading voice — on AI. Driving the news: Independent Sen. Bernie Sanders (Vt.) and fellow progressive Rep. Greg Casar (D-Texas) introduced legislation Wednesday to ban superintelligence and pause advanced development until a new, Cabinet-level…
