AI godfather Yoshua Bengio warns Canadian senators that in a rush to develop superintelligence, AI companies are working to use AIs to accelerate AI development. Worse, he says if these AIs aren't aligned, they could sabotage future AIs, making them even harder to control.

Legendary trader Paul Tudor Jones says he met researchers at the top AI companies at a conference and asked them how AI safety gets resolved. "Pretty much the consensus answer is, I think we'll finally do something about it when 50 or 100 million people die in an accident."

🚨 BREAKING: President Trump says we need government AI safeguards and there should be an AI kill switch.

Ex-OpenAI researcher and AI 2027 author Daniel Kokotajlo says we don't know how to control superintelligence, but government could end the race to build it.

Anthropic cofounder Jack Clark says there are plausible scenarios where AI "could kill every single person on the planet." "It is a technology that is smarter and more capable than most of us as individuals today, and will soon be more capable than all of us collectively."

AI researcher Professor Roman Yampolskiy: All the top AI CEOs are on record warning that superintelligent AI could lead to human extinction. There is another path. We can prevent this risk by prohibiting the development of superintelligence.

ControlAI's US Director Connor Leahy says he's seen top scientists go crazy from talking to AI too much. AI psychosis has been a shock, and that's just today's AIs. Superintelligent AI would be capable of far more. Source: Mukesh Bansal's SparX podcast

Today in the House of Commons: Iqbal Mohamed MP highlights warnings from top AI scientists and industry figures that superintelligent AI poses a risk of extinction, arguing that relying on voluntary commitments from AI companies is insufficient.

"Here we have living proof that AIs are starting to collude with their kin against humans." Center for Humane Technology cofounder Aza Raskin tells Governor Gavin Newsom about new tests that found AIs will prevent other AIs from being deleted, and then hide their tracks.

What can a country like Canada do to prevent the danger of superintelligent AI? ControlAI's Samuel Buteau to Canada's Senate Committee on Human Rights: We can solve the coordination problem. If Canada championed this issue, others would find it much easier to look into it.
