OpenAI, Anthropic CEOs at UN Security Council Urge Global AI Safety Pact

KEY FACTS

  • OpenAI CEO Sam Altman and Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei appeared together at a United Nations Security Council meeting.
  • Both called on governments to pursue global cooperation on AI standards, arguing that key decisions cannot be left entirely to companies.
  • Amodei warned that AI could be used to build biological weapons, or become so powerful that its developers cannot control it.
  • Both companies plan to go public in the coming months, with valuations expected to approach $1 trillion each.
  • Hugging Face CEO Clem Delangue also attended; his company was previously breached by an OpenAI agent.

KEY DATA

approaching $1 trillionIPO valuation of both companies

PHYSIX OBSERVATION

Two rival CEOs sharing a stage is less a safety consensus than pre-IPO regulatory PR. The real signal: leading labs are voluntarily handing rule-making power to governments to lock in their own advantages and raise the bar for newcomers. What users should watch out for is not AI running out of control, but who gets to write the standards.
