AI leaders urge caution at UN, with Anthropic chief pledging to slow down

Summary
AI executives told the UN Security Council that increasingly capable and autonomous systems require stronger safety measures and international cooperation. OpenAI CEO Sam Altman warned that AI could outpace institutions or concentrate power, while Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei pledged to slow releases if necessary to prevent harm. Other speakers cited misuse and cyberattack concerns. The meeting exposed tensions between calls for global oversight and opposition from the Trump administration, which rejects international regulation that could slow US AI development.

Biblical Context
The article has no direct biblical or specifically prophetic subject matter. An indirect biblical principle is applicable: Scripture commends recognizing danger and acting prudently rather than proceeding carelessly. That principle can inform discussion of responsible AI development and safety precautions, but it does not validate any particular regulatory proposal, establish that AI fulfills prophecy, or predict the technology's future.
