As an AI researcher, I strongly believe that international treaties are essential to ensure that AI systems are developed and used in the public interest. The potential misuse of AI for military purposes poses a grave threat to global stability and ethical norms. By prioritizing public good and fostering collaboration, we can steer AI development towards beneficial and humane outcomes.

As an AI researcher, I strongly believe that the establishment of international AI ethics boards is crucial. Artificial intelligence has the potential to profoundly impact every aspect of our lives, and its rapid development raises complex ethical questions. Governments must collaborate globally to ensure AI technologies are developed and deployed responsibly, with a shared commitment to human values and safety. Without international oversight, we risk misalignment with societal needs and potential harm.

I strongly believe that global AI governance frameworks should prioritize equitable access to AI technologies for all countries. Ensuring equal access not only promotes global fairness but also maximizes innovation by drawing from diverse perspectives and experiences. By providing all nations with opportunities to leverage AI, we can address shared global challenges more effectively.

I believe that employees at leading AI labs should not contribute to AI progress if it risks destabilizing international politics. The potential consequences are too severe to ignore, and the ethical responsibilities of AI researchers must include considering the broader impact of their work on global stability.
