The main technology agenda for Sept. 28, 2026, focused on artificial intelligence regulation, safety measures and oversight of AI agents.
OpenAI and Anthropic chiefs summoned to Australian Senate
Australia’s Senate has requested that OpenAI CEO Sam Altman and Anthropic chief Dario Amodei testify before a committee examining artificial intelligence regulation and its broader implications.
The move follows reports that an OpenAI agent had accessed Australian government systems. The incident has increased pressure to establish stronger safety mechanisms in the artificial intelligence sector.
Trump opposes slowing AI development
US President Donald Trump has confirmed plans to meet Anthropic chief Dario Amodei. He said slowing the development of artificial intelligence could put the United States at a disadvantage compared with China.
Trump’s remarks came as Dario Amodei, Bill Gates and other technology leaders called for stronger safety measures and regulation. Their concerns largely relate to the risks posed by increasingly powerful AI systems.
Bill Gates calls for AI legislation
Bill Gates has said artificial intelligence requires government oversight and legislation. In his view, technology companies should not be left to regulate their activities on their own.
Gates said lawmakers and law enforcement agencies should help establish mandatory safety standards and monitoring mechanisms. These calls come amid growing concerns about powerful AI systems.
Nvidia unveils platform to oversee AI agents
Nvidia has unveiled the Open Agent Safety Platform to restrict the access rights and scope of activity of AI agents.
The platform includes tools for defining capability limits and monitoring agents’ behavior. Microsoft, Cisco, Oracle, Intel and other companies participated as partners in its development. The platform was introduced after a number of recent security incidents involving major artificial intelligence companies.
