He says AGI could enable solutions to global issues but also lead to irreversible consequences like nuclear war if unchecked
-
He calls for guardrails on AGI development in light of recent OpenAI turmoil with CEO leadership changes

He argues AI should be held accountable to existing laws and developers should compensate creators whose work trains AI

He proposes a permitting process for powerful AI where developers apply with NIST before release to ensure safe, reliable standards
