Developing beneficial AGI safely and responsibly
“AI systems are becoming a part of everyday life.
The key is to ensure that these machines are
aligned with human intentions and values.”

“This technology will profoundly transform how we live,
and we can guide its trajectory, limit abuse, and
secure broadly beneficial outcomes.”
