A former Google DeepMind research engineer, Bilal Chughtai, has raised concerns over the potential dangers of advanced artificial intelligence, warning that the technology could pose an existential threat to humanity if not properly controlled. Chughtai, who worked on artificial general intelligence safety and alignment research before resigning in July 2026, said he believed AI had the potential to "kill us all" and warned that the world might be running out of time to prevent such an outcome. His warning adds to a growing chorus of AI researchers and industry insiders expressing concern about the rapid development of increasingly capable systems.
