OpenAI has issued one of its most striking public warnings yet about the future of artificial intelligence. In a new blog post published on November 6 and shared by CEO Sam Altman on X this weekend, the company says that AI is advancing far faster than most people realise, with capabilities now edging toward genuine scientific discovery.
The post warns that while this progress brings enormous opportunity, it also carries “potentially catastrophic” risks if humanity fails to build the right safety systems in time.
