I was very honoured to receive the Queen Elizabeth Prize for Engineering from His Majesty King Charles III this week, and pleased to hear his thoughts on AI safety as well as his hopes that we can minimize the risks while collectively reaping the benefits.

This op-ed published in the @nytimes.com by Stephen Witt thoughtfully captures the urgency and complexity of navigating AI's risks, but also my sincere conviction that technical solutions are possible — we still have agency and an opportunity to act.

I recently spoke to the @wsj.com about my concerns with AI's trajectory, and the current competitive dynamics which push AI's capabilities forward without sufficient safety assurances.

A ‘Godfather of AI’ Remains Concerned as Ever About Human Extinction
Yoshua Bengio worries about AI’s capacity to deceive users in pursuit of its own goals. “The scenario in “2001: A Space Odyssey” is exactly like this,” he says.

Very insightful video by Tristan Harris on the growing risks of AI and the race to develop it—but just as importantly, on the danger of thinking our current path is inevitable.
We still have the chance to coordinate globally and create a safer way forward.

The future of AI governance may hinge on our ability to develop trusted and effective ways to make credible claims about AI systems. This new report expands our understanding of the verification challenge and maps out compelling areas for further work. ⬇️
Governing AI requires international agreements, but cooperation can be risky if there’s no basis for trust.
Our new report looks at how to verify compliance with AI agreements without sacrificing national security.
This is neither impossible nor trivial.🧵

By advancing SB 53, California is uniquely positioned to continue supporting cutting-edge AI while proactively taking a step towards addressing the severe and potentially irreversible harms that frontier systems could cause.
I’m expanding my AI bill into a broader effort to boost transparency & advance an industrial policy for AI in California.
We need transparency & accountability to boost trust in AI & mitigate material risks.
We also need to accelerate & democratize AI development.
SB 53 does both.
