Anthropic Executive Calls for Slowing Down Artificial Intelligence Development
Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei argued that the pace of development of artificial intelligence technologies should be slowed down and audited by independent bodies.
Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei, in a published article, demanded that the pace of development of artificial intelligence models be slowed down and tightly regulated, proposing a three-point plan.
Call to Slow Down Development
Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei stated that artificial intelligence development is not being questioned but that the risks are serious, emphasizing that time must be given to companies and governments.
Three-Point Action Plan
The plan proposed by Amodei covers independent monitoring of models, the introduction of industry-wide rules, and the implementation of global-level regulation.
Resignations and Safety Concerns
Over the past two weeks, two employees from Anthropic's safety team resigned on the grounds that the race to develop models surpassing humanity could endanger human survival.
Political Reactions
While US Senator Bernie Sanders called for a pause in the development of advanced artificial intelligence and the ban of artificial superintelligence, US President Donald Trump dismissed such fears.
Biological Weapon and Security Findings
Anthropic announced that it had detected and prevented attempts to use its artificial intelligence model for malicious activities that could support the development of biological weapons.
Emphasis on Voluntary Cooperation
Amodei acknowledged that regulations might not keep pace with artificial intelligence, stating that companies should work voluntarily to set standards alongside regulations.
