Anthropic and OpenAI CEOs call for AI development to slow down

Dario Amodei, CEO of Anthropic, has publicly advocated for a deceleration in the development of artificial intelligence. Speaking in New York, Amodei cited concerns regarding the potential hazards posed by the emergence of superintelligent computer systems as the primary motivation for his call to action.

This appeal for a more cautious approach to technological advancement follows recent departures from OpenAI, including researcher Jacob Coxon. The statements highlight a growing discourse among industry leaders regarding the safety and oversight of increasingly powerful AI models.
