Anthropic CEO calls for slowdown in AI development and greater control

SAPO Notícias12 September 2026 at 17:53

Anthropic's CEO, Dario Amodei, today called for a slowdown in the development of artificial intelligence (AI), emphasizing the need for greater control. Amodei warned of the necessity to implement more rigorous regulation mechanisms for the technology, in order to mitigate potential risks associated with the accelerated advancement of AI. This appeal comes at a time when the global race to develop artificial intelligence systems has been intensifying, raising growing concerns among experts and regulators.

Why this matters

This call from a leader of one of the main AI companies shows a significant rupture in the sector, where the creators themselves acknowledge risks and call for restraint. For readers, this reinforces the ongoing debate on AI regulation and may influence future public policies and technology investment decisions.
