Dario Amodei, CEO of the artificial intelligence company Anthropic, made a public appeal for companies in the sector to slow down the pace of AI development. The request comes at a time when the technological race between major companies in the sector has intensified significantly.
Amodei proposes a structured three-step plan to achieve this slowdown. The main objective is for companies to begin to "moderate the pace at the frontier" of technological development.
The Anthropic CEO argues that AI should be developed "at a balanced pace," where safety is as important a priority as innovation. This position is particularly relevant coming from a company that directly competes with other giants in the sector.
Amodei's plan aims to find a balance between ensuring the safety of AI technologies and continuing to enjoy the benefits these can bring to society. This is one of the first times a leader of a leading AI company has made such a direct appeal for the sector to slow down.
