King Charles warns big tech executives about "existential AI dangers."

Cumnock (Scotland), September 17 (askanews) – King Charles III of the United Kingdom is warning tech giants of the "existential dangers" of artificial intelligence falling into the wrong hands, during a conference at Dumfries House in southern Scotland. The meeting brings together senior executives from Nvidia, Google DeepMind, OpenAI, and Anthropic, as well as the UK's AI minister.

"The development of AI, its nature, and its pace are both intriguing and deeply concerning," King Charles began. "Artificial intelligence is already demonstrating its immense capacity to improve and save lives, for example in the life sciences and medicine. However, the creators of these technologies are increasingly warning that AI risks developing darker capabilities, perhaps even taking lives.

In this regard, if I may, it seems urgent to adequately assess the existential risks associated with the possibility of these technologies falling into the wrong hands and being used in potentially catastrophic ways. Therefore, we certainly need adequate means of control before it is too late. Those in our world who deeply value our humanity and its vital moral component eagerly await your reassurance: that we will not lose control of our destiny or our souls.
