Anthropic, OpenAI, SpaceXAI, Google face federal antitrust lawsuit over calls to slowdown AI development

New Delhi [India], September 19 (ANI): Leading artificial intelligence companies Anthropic, OpenAI, SpaceXAI, and Google face allegations of collusion after calls emerged for a coordinated slowdown in AI development, according to a civil lawsuit filed in a United States federal court on Friday.

According to a news report by Politico, the complaint filed in the Northern District Court of California, claims that public statements made earlier this month amounted to an illegal business agreement between competitors under US antitrust law. The matter began with Anthropic Chief Executive Officer Dario Amodei issuing a public plea for “industry-wide coordination” to “pace the frontier” of artificial intelligence advancement.
