Doug Krisner 2:17
By the way, two congressional committees are also conducting inquiries. The leaders of both OpenAI and Anthropic are urging world leaders to work together on artificial intelligence. Sam Altman and Dario Amade appear today before the UN Security Council, and both executives said governments should join industry in making critical decisions about AI's future. Here's Altman.
Sam Altman 2:40
We have a choice in front of us. AI can either be more like a new renaissance of creativity and discovery, or more like a new industrial revolution of upheaval and disarray. As AI becomes more capable. People must remain at the center of AI decision making. Alignment is not an abstract research question. It is the work of ensuring that these systems reliably remain under human control, reflect human values, and help people guide the next stages of development.
Doug Krisner 3:07
Here is Amadei on the risks of artificial intelligence.

How is Senator Mark Kelly’s “Make AI Work for Americans Act” proposing to tax AI and protect workers?

Dario Amodei 3:13

Doug Krisner 3:24
Meantime, on Capitol Hill, Arizona Democratic Senator Mark Kelly has a proposal to help regulate the economic impact of artificial intelligence. It's been labeled the Make AI Work for Americans Act, and it's designed to protect American workers and to regulate the AI industry. It includes a digital ad tax and an AI usage tax. These revenues would fund support for workers displaced by the government. By the technology. Here is Kelly.
Mark Kelly 3:51
You know, I think about this as like being in the space shuttle and the master alarm light is f flashing in your face. It's time to act and come up with a plan. Um and there is the possibility we could have significant job loss.
