OpenAI CEO Sam Altman is set to personally brief a public meeting of the United Nations Security Council in New York next week during the UN General Assembly, according to an OpenAI spokesperson. The 15-member council is scheduled to meet on Wednesday to discuss artificial intelligence and international security. France, which holds the council’s rotating presidency for September, convened the session, and French Foreign Minister Jean-Noel Barrot is expected to chair it. Diplomats said senior executives from Anthropic are also expected to attend, though that has not been confirmed. Altman’s remarks are expected to focus on international coordination, shared safety standards, and steps OpenAI has taken to benefit people globally. A concept note prepared by France for the meeting points to the risks of malicious AI misuse and the urgency of action to support safe and responsible development. The Security Council first held a meeting on AI risks in 2023.
