Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei has warned of immediate risks posed by advancing artificial intelligence (AI), comparing the technology’s journey to the sudden emergence of a new global superpower.
In a newly released 38-page essay titled ‘The Adolescence of Technology’, Amodei argued that the most effective way to understand the scale of the challenge is to imagine that a “literal ‘country of geniuses’ were to materialize somewhere in the world in ~2027.” He had written about this in his previous essay, Machines of Loving Grace, as well.
