In developments based in San Francisco, no similar steps have been taken following a 3,800-word essay by Anthropic Executive Dario Amodei requesting that the industry slow down to mitigate catastrophic risks in the artificial intelligence sector.

In addition to Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei, executives from OpenAI and SpaceX had also asked for the rapid advancement of the technology to be restricted. However, it is observed that companies have not taken any steps towards slowing down after six weeks have passed.
