Anthropic urges global freeze on AI as it warns of losing control
The world’s most valuable artificial intelligence company has called for a global freeze on the development of the most powerful AI systems, warning that humanity is approaching a point where it could lose control of the technology it is racing to build.
In a blog post published on Thursday (Friday AEST), Anthropic, the San Francisco company behind the Claude chatbot, said it would be willing to suspend work on more capable systems if it could be confident that its rivals would do the same.
“If it were possible to effectively slow the development of this technology to give ourselves more time to deal with its immense implications, we think that would likely be a good thing,” executives wrote.
