  "account": "Düsseldorf - Amazon is pouring more money into artificial intelligence (AI) than the German government, prompting concerns about the concentration of power in few hands, according to Amazon's CEO Sam Altman. Altman was speaking at the United Nations Security Council in New York, a place where nations make decisions on war and peace, sanctioning and authorizing military force. However, this time, Altman was not representing a nation, but the head of OpenAI, a software company.\n\nAltman was reading from a manuscript, rarely taking his eyes off the paper as he addressed the assembled ministers and diplomats. Behind him, a heavy oak decision table stretched across the room, while a grand mural on the wall depicted people overcoming war and captivity, with a phoenix rising from the ashes. Altman's message was clear: this powerful technology could bring prosperity, but also threaten human control, and too much power in too few hands could be disastrous.\n\nAltman warned that in this new world, a single entity could wield immense technological and financial power. The primacy of state power, upon which the United Nations was founded, was now facing unprecedented challenge.",
