LIVE: OpenAI And Anthropic To Brief Security Council As AI Guardrails Debate Intensifies

OpenAI and Anthropic are set to brief the UN Security Council at 3pm as debate over AI safety and governance intensifies. The session focuses on the risk that humans could lose control of systems designed to outperform them, with warnings that guardrails are not keeping pace with rapid AI deployment—from classrooms to battlefields. The briefing marks the first time the Council has zeroed in on this specific concern. Alongside OpenAI and Anthropic leaders, Hugging Face CEO Clément Delangue and Yoshua Bengio are also expected to speak. The UN’s broader efforts include establishing the Global Digital Compact to encourage cooperation on governing digital technologies and AI, with the event livestreamed on UN Web TV.
