    Center says coming US-China AI safety talks 'will not save us'

    Seth Center, a former U.S. official who led American AI diplomacy, publishes an opinion piece in The New York Times arguing that scheduled U.S.-China talks on AI safety will fail to address real risks because China values AI victory over safety.

    “The coming US-China talks will do nothing to address A.I. risks.”
