In a post on X, Microsoft chief executive Satya Nadella outlined a proposal to treat advanced AI systems as potentially compromised from the moment they are deployed. He argued that the industry can no longer rely on opaque, nested black boxes and instead must build mechanisms for transparency, observation, and tamper-proof human readable evidence. The proposal includes timely disclosure of incidents, independent audits, verifiable data trails, and a containment framework that allows an authorized individual to pause or shut down a model mid operation. Nadella emphasized that containment technologies must be standardized as models grow more capable. He referred to future AI systems as super intelligence throughout the discussion. The post did not specify a timeline for implementation or detail the technical specifications of the proposed emergency brake.
