Sam Altman’s remarks at the United Nations Security Council

AnnouncementPolicySep 23, 2026

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman addressed the United Nations Security Council on artificial intelligence on September 23, 2026. He outlined two major risks: losing control of the future to AI, and the concentration of power in too few hands. Altman said OpenAI has unilaterally slowed down in the past and will do so again, and argued that no one person, company, or country should use powerful AI models to impose their worldview. He called for international cooperation on AI safety.
