Meta Platforms chief AI officer Alexandr Wang said the idea that AI should benefit everyone depends on whether people can trust powerful systems to pursue their goals reliably without creating unwanted side effects. He said alignment sits at the center of that promise and argued the industry is at a critical moment as capabilities are increasing quickly, making faster progress on alignment necessary to keep pace.
His comments came as other major AI leaders have also focused on safety and oversight. Earlier, Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei published a lengthy blog post saying the company would adopt new safety measures, including the use of third-party evaluators, and called on the broader industry to support wider efforts to slow AI model development. OpenAI CEO Sam Altman then said he would adopt Amodei’s proposal to give independent evaluators access similar to that of employees. Elon Musk, who operates xAI, also weighed in, saying that Amodei was right.

He said alignment is central to delivering on that promise. Wang added that the industry is at a critical moment, with capabilities rising quickly, and said progress on alignment needs to accelerate in order to keep up.
He also said the positive future the industry is seeking, one in which AI truly benefits everyone, requires careful and considered action across the sector at this critical stage.
