je donne maintenant la parole à Monsieur Clément Delang.
Monsieur le Président, Mesdames et Messieurs les membres du Conseil, merci.
En tant que citoyen français qui a déménagé aux États-Unis, l'interprète s'excuse, mais le son coupe, ce qui rend l'interprétation impossible.
Premièrement, nous pouvons tous...

I now give the floor to Mr. Clement DeLong.
Mr. president, members, thank you for the.
As a French national who moved to the US 15 years ago, Brazil and two American daughters, I.
Collaboration on a daily basis.
Appreciation for the challenging work.
I'm also the co-founder and CEO of.
To be one of the most widely used forums for developers and agents built by.
Based on open source models.
This July, we were the first company to publicly disclose an autonomous agent cyber attack to the world And today, I want to share three critical lessons from it.
First, we can all agree that we need more trust in AI.
I often wonder what would have happened decided not to disclose this attack publicly, especially now that we know similar incidents had been happening months earlier in secret at a handful of frontier labs.
Without monitoring.
To better understand and mitigate these emerging cybersecurity risks, the global community needs stronger standards for monitoring and incident disclosure.
For example, through mandatory sharing of full agent traces.
We learned this summer that building and keeping some of these systems behind closed doors is not.
Second, we realized that the biggest risk is not powerful AI It's asymmetry of powerful AI asymmetry between attackers and defenders, between a few companies and everyone else, between a few countries and the rest of the world.
Asymmetry of control of capabilities.
Compute.
Asymmetry of power.
When we, our team initially turned to frontier close to us APIs that blocked us.
So we couldn't use them because of safeguards that still can't always tell the difference.
And defenders, I realized that these safeguards.
But they can put defenders at a disadvantage Attackers can easily jailbreak them, increasing the asymmetry of capabilities.
In our case, as we got blocked by guardrails fortunately, we could use the Nvidia version of an open source model coming from China called GLM 5.2 by AI, and we're very grateful for that.
It reinforced our conviction of the importance of open source AI for defenders, cyber attacks and risks may increasingly come from proprietary models behind closed doors.
While much of the defense may end up being powered by open source tools because they are less restricted, more privacy preserving, and orders of magnitude more affordable for organizations across the globe, the world needs open source AI more than ever to defend itself This applies not only to cybersecurity, but to AI in general, where there has never been a greater need to distribute capabilities, resources and control rather than concentrated in the hands of a few.
Third, during this cyber attack, we learned how AI can stoke fear among the public and especially through anthropomorphic framing and sci fi imagery.
We strongly believe that fear based narratives are not the way to make the right decisions about the future of such a foundational and empowering technology, or bring the public along with us.
Even though we were the victims of this cyber attack, we believe more strongly than ever that AI will be beneficial to cyber security and make the world safer, just as major technology before it.
We were attacked by AI, but more importantly, we defended ourselves with AI.
The same systems that helped us during this attack are now helping us against cyber attacks we were already facing is also helping us fix the bugs and weaknesses in our systems before any attack.
The same way AI is helping OpenAI fix their sandboxes to prevent AI.
I won't just new cybersecurity challenges.
It can make cybersecurity fundamentally and meaningfully stronger.
If we keep the right incentives, equip defenders more than attackers, and don't increase the asymmetry between them.
And that's before considering AI's positive impact on science, healthcare, education, productivity, and much more than the previous speakers have talked about.
In closing, I want to reiterate what this first agent cyber attack taught the need for more transparency in AI, more open source to fight asymmetry, empower different countries, big and small.
Thank you again to the UN Security Council and Mr. Barrow for inviting me to speak today.
Community and myself are to disposal.
Thank you very much.
Merci, monsieur.
I thank Mr. DeLong for his briefing.
