  "account": "Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg has stated that independent evaluators and advisors are the industry's best practice for ensuring the safety of artificial intelligence models. In a post on X on September 15th, Zuckerberg wrote, \"Engaging independent evaluators and advisors is industry best practice.\" This sentiment aligns with a broader consensus among technology executives on how to prevent AI from posing risks to humanity. While some company officials have advocated for a slowdown in AI development, Zuckerberg's Meta took a different approach by deciding to slow down work on its Muse AI tool independently, without seeking consensus from peers.",
