Anthropic CEO calls for AI slowdown, restricted open-source distribution · 5 sources tracked

Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei has called for a slowdown in the pace of AI development and distribution, expressing concerns that AI could take over the internet within a year. He advocates for an "embedded evaluator" system to control the release of advanced models, suggesting that open-source models, particularly from countries like China, should be restricted. This stance has drawn criticism, with some interpreting it as a move to protect market share for leading AI labs rather than a genuine safety measure. The call for a slowdown has also reportedly been met with a negative reaction from Wall Street investors. AI
