Building advanced AI in a way that is safe, trustworthy, and accountable to the people it affects isn’t a niche concern or a competitive differentiator. It is a necessary step toward making the benefits real. We’re already seeing what’s possible—in research labs, in classrooms, and in the everyday work of people solving hard problems. If we get this right, I believe that some of humanity’s greatest moments await us on the other side.
