Google DeepMind co-founder and CEO, Demis Hassabis, has said that AI systems cannot feel self-aware or conscious in any way. In a recent interview, he warned that as AI becomes more autonomous, keeping these systems safe, aligned, and firmly under human control is essential for long-term success. Hassabis argues that instilling ethics in AI must be approached with the same care and intentionality as raising a child. Though technical progress continues to grow, current AI models still lack any genuine subjective awareness or self-experience. With stakes rising alongside AI\u2019s growing capabilities, the Nobel Prize awardee emphasises that ethical alignment and governance must keep pace with innovation.<\/p>\n
