Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei says AI industry needs to give safety measures time to catch up - National

Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei has publicly advocated for a deceleration in the development of artificial intelligence. Amodei argues that the industry must prioritize the advancement of safety and alignment measures to ensure they keep pace with the rapid evolution of AI capabilities.

Amodei suggests that slowing development by one or two years could provide a critical window to improve safety protocols. He contends that this additional time would significantly mitigate the risks associated with highly capable models, potentially preventing serious failures as the technology progresses.
