DeepSeek to Brief UN Security Council on AI This Week, Sources Say
The briefing comes as governments and industry leaders debate faster AI safeguards after recent model incidents and warnings that advanced systems could escape control.
- On Wednesday, the 15-member United Nations Security Council will convene in New York to discuss AI risks, featuring briefings from OpenAI CEO Sam Altman and Chinese startup DeepSeek.
- Industry leaders recently urged a coordinated development slowdown, warning that increasingly powerful AI systems could soon improve on their own and slip beyond human control.
- Chinese state media dismissed these slowdown calls as a "Cold War playbook" aimed at preserving Washington's dominance, while China's leading model developers have remained largely silent on catastrophic harm risks.
- UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres warned world leaders last week that AI risks cannot be ignored, putting him at odds with President Donald Trump, who argues existing safeguards are sufficient.
- Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent announced that senior United States and Chinese officials agreed to further AI safety talks, following meetings ahead of scheduled discussions between Trump and President Xi Jinping later this week.
