Fei-Fei Li, CEO of World Labs and a leading voice in artificial intelligence research, is calling for independent oversight of frontier AI systems. In a Bloomberg interview on September 22, 2026, she advocated for a multi-stakeholder evaluation approach involving academia, government, and industry, rather than leaving AI companies to assess their own technology. Her call echoes that of the AI Evaluator Forum, a coalition of over 100 experts who published a letter demanding structural independence for third-party evaluators, calling insufficient the pledges made by the CEOs of Anthropic and OpenAI in September. Fei-Fei Li emphasizes the need for independent benchmarks, arguing that if companies building frontier models also define the tests those models take, the evaluations lose all meaning.
