AI Leaders Urge UN to Establish Global Risk Standards

Top executives from leading artificial intelligence companies, including OpenAI, Anthropic, and Hugging Face, have called for international collaboration at the United Nations to develop standardized risk evaluation frameworks for AI technologies. Sam Altman of OpenAI, Dario Amodei of Anthropic, and Clement Delangue of Hugging Face are among those advocating for these global terms.

This initiative reflects a growing consensus among AI developers and policymakers that a coordinated international approach is necessary to manage the potential risks associated with advanced AI. The push for standardized risk assessments aims to ensure that AI development proceeds responsibly and that potential harms are proactively identified and mitigated across different applications and jurisdictions. The involvement of the UN signals a desire for a multilateral governance structure to guide the future of artificial intelligence.
