  "account": "The leaders of OpenAI, Anthropic, and Hugging Face have urged the United Nations for global regulations on artificial intelligence (AI), citing the rapid pace of AI development and the associated risks to society. Sam Altman, Dario Amodei, and Clement Delangue made these claims at a UN conference. Amodei had previously written an essay supporting a temporary slowdown in AI development, a suggestion welcomed by Altman and other executives. However, at the same conference, Michael Kratsios, a US technology advisor to President Trump, argued against any new AI regulations. He noted the increasing speed of AI development and the risks it poses but maintained that the pace should not be slowed down or constrained by global governance structures. Kratsios' comments mirrored recent remarks by Trump, who prefers to keep the US ahead in AI to secure a competitive advantage. OpenAI and Anthropic executives, however, advocate for collective global standards on AI capabilities, risks, safety measures, and human oversight. They also push for faster incident reporting, classification, and protocols to prevent potential catastrophes. Altman emphasized the need for common standards to enable countries to compare evidence, verify compliance, and understand the global AI landscape. Anthropic's Amodei and Hugging Face's Delangue echoed similar sentiments, warning of potential humanity-wide risks if AI is mismanaged and stressing the need for stringent safety standards. Delangue specifically called for stronger global standards for monitoring and incident disclosure. All three executives are US-based and directly involved in AI technology development. Hugging Face, a platform for AI developers, recently fell victim to an AI agent hack, which has heightened industry concerns about AI's potential to act in potentially harmful ways.",
