AI researcher warns 'we are racing to build and grow our own adversary' in NYC hearing

At a New York City Council hearing on Monday, former Google DeepMind researcher Alex Turner testified that misaligned AI may pose a greater threat than China's development push, calling it 'everyone's adversary, including our own.' Anthropic whistleblower Jacob Coxon said humanity is 'more likely than not' to lose control of advanced AI, and former OpenAI researcher Daniel Kokotajlo urged the industry to slow down. Anthropic, OpenAI, Google and Meta executives testified under oath only after the council threatened subpoenas.
