He argued that AI tool developers should establish clear boundaries on their capabilities, drawing an analogy to fire—which can provide warmth but also destroy villages—and stressed the need for strict oversight. His comments come as researchers and industry experts continue to discuss the potential catastrophic consequences of self-improving AI models.
