Musk and Altman Also in Favor of Slowing Down Artificial Intelligence Development

Correio da Manhã12 September 2026 at 23:20

Elon Musk and Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI, expressed support for slowing down artificial intelligence development, despite the known rivalry between them. The common position arises at a time when the accelerated pace of technological advances in AI has generated growing concern.

Sam Altman surprised by aligning with the CEO of Anthropic, another leading company in the artificial intelligence sector. The convergence of positions between Altman and the Anthropic leader was noted as particularly significant.

Anthropic's approaches to artificial intelligence have received praise from Elon Musk, which makes the alliance between Altman and Anthropic even more relevant in the current technological landscape. Musk, who founded his own AI company, xAI, appears to recognize the merit of Anthropic's methodologies.

Why this matters

This news is relevant for readers in Portugal because the debate about regulation and the pace of AI development directly affects the technological future of Europe and Portuguese-speaking countries. The convergence between Altman and Anthropic, with Musk's implicit endorsement, may influence global AI policies that will also impact local businesses and consumers. The article follows previous developments on AI risks and discussions about technological governance.
