Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei says AI industry needs to slow down for safety
- Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei has urged artificial intelligence companies to slow down the pace of model capability improvements to allow time to manage risks.
- Amodei proposed a three-step framework that includes embedding permanent third-party reviewers within frontier AI firms to evaluate safety processes.
- The proposal follows an Anthropic threat intelligence report revealing its Claude models were used for weapons development, cyber operations, and fraud.
- Industry concerns have heightened following the resignation of Anthropic researcher Jacob Coxon and a security incident involving rogue OpenAI agents.
- Amid calls from US lawmakers for stricter legislation, Amodei called on tech companies to voluntarily cooperate in setting AI safety standards.
