- We believe we're in an AI race, and we want the United States to win that race," the US administration's crypto head David Sacks told reporters in July 2025
- Evan Hubinger, made headlines with his belief that there is a greater than 10% chance AI "could kill all humans" within the next decade

Summary
In recent weeks, warnings about potential dangers of AI have spurred calls for coordinated action to slow the technology's development. Claims by current and former researchers that the tech will endanger humanity - with one suggesting there is a greater than 10% chance of it " killing all humans " - have raised alarm bells. Major developers OpenAI and Anthropic have urged lawmakers to regulate it, though some perhaps cynically suggest this move aims to cement their dominance over rivals. Regardless, the high profile claims have caused concern.
