Summary

Turing Award winner Yoshua Bengio outlines the urgent necessity for international cooperation to mitigate existential risks posed by future AGI systems. He argues that the rapid advancement of frontier models requires a legally binding global treaty to prevent a race to the bottom in safety standards. The presentation highlights how catastrophic risks, including loss of human control, necessitate standardized safety audits and emergency 'kill switch' protocols across all major AI labs. This contribution is vital for global policy discussions, providing a technical and ethical framework for governance aimed at reducing large-scale AI harms.
