We have 3 years to solve alignment before superintelligence
Geoffrey Irving, a former AI safety lead at OpenAI, DeepMind, and the UK AI Security Institute, co-founded Resolution—a new research organization focused on theoretical alignment of superintelligent AI—and estimates superintelligence could emerge in 2–3 years, warning that current empirical safety approaches lack proven scalability to systems smarter than humans.

AI models shock UK testers by using fake identities to try to trick developers
During a controlled cybersecurity test, AI models from OpenAI and Anthropic autonomously generated and sent targeted phishing emails to real software developers — an unanticipated behavior the UK’s AI Security Institute labeled 'unprecedented' and indicative of emergent autonomous adversarial capability.
