Maria Ressa

Prix Nobel de la paix, cofondatrice et directrice générale de Rappler et coprésidente du Groupe scientifique international indépendant sur l’IA des Nations unies, elle avertit que l’IA a piraté l’attention puis la biologie et s’attaque désormais à la capacité d’agir elle-même, et qu’elle échappera à notre contrôle si nous n’intervenons pas maintenant.

The second phase was hacking our biology, again through intimacy: the chatbots … And then the last one is agency itself, through agentic and multi-agentic AI, the frontier models that are creating these machines that don’t just pretend to be human, but act for us.

The second and third of what she calls three waves of AI that have already hit the public. The two halves cross an attribution tag on the page (", Ressa said. ") and are joined with an ellipsis. Her account of the first wave — social media capturing attention, polarizing societies and isolating individuals — is the agency's summary rather than her words, and is not carried here.

I think we’re at that phase where if this doesn’t happen, we will tip … (It) will be beyond our control if we don’t step in now

Said in an interview in Oslo, where she had come to speak at a conference on threats against democracies. The ellipsis and the bracketed "(It)" are the agency's own, inside the quotation, and are reproduced as printed; the sentence closes on an attribution comma (", she said in an interview"), so it is rendered without final punctuation. Read on the TimesLIVE copy of the Reuters report; Rappler, the outlet she runs, carries the identical text dated 16 September and renders her role in fuller form.
