AI scientists are calling for global oversight to prevent potential catastrophic outcomes from AI, emphasizing the need for international cooperation and governance.

A statement from the group, released on September 16, highlighted concerns about losing control over advanced AI systems and the lack of sufficient science to manage these risks.

They advocate for national authorities to handle AI incidents and the creation of a global contingency plan.

The proposal includes emergency preparedness, a safety assurance framework, and independent global research, Coin Telegraph has reported.

This initiative follows a recent meeting by the Safe AI Forum and supports the new international AI treaty signed by the US, EU, and UK.

The group includes experts from leading institutions and over 30 signatories from various countries.
