“Must slow the pace down”: Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei calls for AI industry to slow down or risk losing control

San Francisco (California) [US], September 12: After public resignations of researchers with links to Anthropic, CEO Dario Amodei on Saturday advocated for the AI Industry to slow down. Detailing his plan for doing this, Amodei said Anthropic would open system access to third-party evaluators.

“We Must Pace the Frontier: I’ve written a new essay on why the AI industry should slow down, with a three-part plan for doing so. Anthropic is unilaterally committing to the first of these steps. We’ll provide third-party evaluators with permanent, employee-level access to our systems, so that they can verify adherence to our safety measures, report on incidents, and assess models’ alignment during training,” he wrote on X.
