Call to Slow Down for Safety Measures in the Artificial Intelligence Sector

Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei called for the rapid development process of the artificial intelligence sector to be slowed down so that safety precautions can keep up, and drew attention to potential risks.

Time Must Be Allowed for Safety Measures

In his statement, Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei expressed that the fast-moving pace of the artificial intelligence industry needs to be slowed down. He emphasized that this slowdown is necessary for safety measures to keep pace with developments.

Risk of Taking Over the Internet

Amodei warned that if necessary precautions are not taken, artificial intelligence could reach the capacity to take over the entire internet within a short period of six to twelve months. He noted that this situation is among the potential risks.

Global Coordination and Action Plan

Presenting a plan to increase oversight in the sector, Amodei stated that this process requires broad industry coordination and cooperation among governments worldwide.

Commitment to Access for External Evaluators

To help keep risks under control, he suggested that pioneering artificial intelligence companies commit to granting continuous access to a team of external evaluators.
