AI Raises Risk Of Human Extinction

Andrea Miotti, founder of nonprofit ControlAI, warns in a guest essay that unchecked AI development could lead to human extinction and urges immediate regulation, including bans on superintelligence. He argues AI is rapidly evolving into autonomous agents that can outperform humans, that the supply chain is narrow and concentrated, and that coordinated government action is needed to mitigate catastrophic risks.
