The catastrophic risks of AI — and a safer path Yoshua Bengio — the world's most-cited computer scientist and a "godfather" of artificial intelligence — is deadly concerned about the current trajectory of the technology. As AI models race toward fu...

We're Not Ready for AI's Risks It’s possible that we’re nearing the limits of our current approach to frontier AI, says Yoshua Bengio

TIME recently invited me to share my perspective on the past year in AI development.
We've seen major growth in AI capabilities & risks, but as
@law-zero.bsky.social continues its research, I'm increasingly confident that technical solutions are possible to make AI safer.

Opinion | The A.I. Prompt That Could End the World

This op-ed published in the @nytimes.com by Stephen Witt thoughtfully captures the urgency and complexity of navigating AI's risks, but also my sincere conviction that technical solutions are possible — we still have agency and an opportunity to act.

A ‘Godfather of AI’ Remains Concerned as Ever About Human Extinction Yoshua Bengio worries about AI’s capacity to deceive users in pursuit of its own goals. “The scenario in “2001: A Space Odyssey” is exactly like this,” he says.

I recently spoke to the @wsj.com about my concerns with AI's trajectory, and the current competitive dynamics which push AI's capabilities forward without sufficient safety assurances.

Thanks to Isabelle Bousquette for a great conversation!

Lunch seminar at the Center of Algorithmics and Optimization (RWTH Aachen): Fabio Furini held a talk about Graph Disconnection Games

It was an honour to speak at the United Nations this week to address the UN Security Council on the impacts of AI on international peace & security, and to join the high-level multi-stakeholder informal meeting to launch the Global Dialogue on AI Governance.

Winter 2025 / 2026 schools on artificial intelligence, data science, machine learning, optimization, and other relevant topics in operations research Following up on a recent post about Summer 2025 schools, here is a new list. The purpose of organizing this is to help graduate students find a summer school to gain skills related to operations re…

I recently discussed my work on building honest AI as a guardrail for the risks of frontier AI systems w/ Pier Luigi Pisa of La Repubblica. We also covered the potential economic inequities the global AI race could cause & how it could put Europe at a disadvantage.

Planning capabilities double every 7mo→human-level in 5yrs? @yoshuabengio.bsky.social: "We still don't know how to make sure powerful AIs won't turn against us" AIs now lie to avoid shutdown, self-preserve. Solution: Non-agentic "Scientist AIs" + global governance beyond market forces 👇

Is AI Apocalypse Inevitable? - Tristan Harris YouTube video by After Skool

Very insightful video by Tristan Harris on the growing risks of AI and the race to develop it—but just as importantly, on the danger of thinking our current path is inevitable.

We still have the chance to coordinate globally and create a safer way forward.

The future of AI governance may hinge on our ability to develop trusted and effective ways to make credible claims about AI systems. This new report expands our understanding of the verification challenge and maps out compelling areas for further work. ⬇️
