The executive chairman of Anthropic, Dario Amodei, publicly defended that the artificial intelligence industry should reduce the pace of development. The statement comes at a time of growing concern about the accelerated advancement of AI technology.
Amodei expressed particular concern about artificial intelligence models capable of self-improvement. These systems, which can improve themselves without direct human intervention, represent one of the main fears of industry experts.
As a leader of Anthropic, the company known for developing the AI assistant Claude, Amodei joins other influential voices that have been warning about the risks associated with uncontrolled development of the technology. Anthropic has stood out for a more cautious approach to AI safety.
The call to slow development contrasts with the intense competition among major technology companies for dominance in the artificial intelligence sector, which has accelerated the race to create increasingly powerful and sophisticated systems.
