The story

Caribbean Prime Minister Kamla Prasad Besisha has formally urged global leaders to address security risks associated with artificial superintelligence before capabilities outpace governance. According to a statement circulated via Citizen Portal News US on September 25, 2026, Besisha emphasized the urgent need for international cooperation to mitigate potential dangers posed by advanced AI systems. The appeal specifically targets the "dark side" of emerging technologies, framing superintelligence as a transnational security threat requiring immediate multilateral engagement. This intervention marks a notable expansion of AI safety discourse beyond traditional tech powers, incorporating Caribbean perspectives into high-stakes strategic planning. While specific policy proposals were not detailed in the initial announcement, the call aligns with growing international efforts to establish binding safety standards for frontier models. Stakeholders have yet to issue formal responses to Besisha’s request for coordinated global action on existential AI risks.
