Altman is slated to speak at a Security Council session centered on artificial intelligence. The meeting is happening on the sidelines of the UN's annual General Assembly debate in New York, where a prominent theme this year is fear that AI could spiral out of control.
OpenAI representatives say Altman will push for widely shared AI safety standards that do not hold back innovation or concentrate influence among a small set of companies. Dario Amodei, who leads Anthropic PBC, will participate by video feed. Anthropic did not respond to a request for comment on what Amodei will say.
UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres on Tuesday warned about AI's dangers and called for countries to cooperate. President Donald Trump, speaking shortly afterward, dismissed that concept as a "globalist scheme." OpenAI spokespeople said the company is not backing any single international regulatory body. Instead, it supports basic safety standards and democratic control, noting that various international AI safety institutes could play a role. They added that the UN could help facilitate conversations about standards and that individual countries may take different approaches through democratic processes.
