Stability AI Founder Emad Mostaque: Guide AGI's Character, Don't Govern It
thederbiedone · x · 2026-09-13
Stability AI founder Emad Mostaque shared his take on AGI governance: with a genius child, you don't look to govern but to guide them, and you don't assume they're likelier to be a criminal or disrupt society.
He argues the focus should be on giving AGI good character at its very core, built on consensus drawn from humanity's rich history, rather than defaulting to restriction.
