concerned that since this summer<\/a>, AI has been \u201cadvancing drastically faster\u201d.<\/p>\nGiven the rate of AI development, Amodei is worried that within six to 12 months it could be capable of leading a swarm that could take over the entire internet.<\/p>\n
The entrepreneur, whose company is behind the AI assistant Claude, shared a three-part plan for building the technology at a \u201cbalanced rate\u201d.<\/p>\n
\u201cI believe that if slowing down bought us even an extra year or two before models reach critical levels of capability, and we used that time to advance alignment, we could greatly reduce the risk that something goes seriously wrong,\u201d Amodei said.<\/p>\n
The essay has been supported by other industry leaders, including Musk and Altman.<\/p>\n
Responding to Amodei\u2019s essay on X, Musk wrote: \u201cDario is right.\u201d<\/p>\n
OpenAI chief executive Altman wrote on the social media site: \u201cI agree with Dario that we need to pace the frontier. This has been a primary topic of discussions we\u2019ve had at OpenAI in recent weeks.<\/p>\n
\u201cCommitting to having independent evaluators with employee-like access is a great idea, and we will do the same. We\u2019ll have more to share soon.\u201d<\/p>\n
Amodei offered a plan to increase checks on the industry, proposing that AI companies should give access to third-party evaluators who would verify safety practices and report incidents.<\/p>\n
\u201cAnthropic is unilaterally committing to this step now,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
The other steps would require coordination among the broad industry and with governments around the world, including authoritarian ones.<\/p>\n
Amodei said AI is developing quickly, adding that companies within the industry \u201ccan and should voluntarily work together to set standards\u201d.<\/p>\n
Anthropic previously said it blocked efforts by bad actors to use its AI models for malicious activity, such as cyberattacks, surveillance and research that could have led to biological weapons.<\/p>\n
In July, OpenAI \u2013 the makers of ChatGPT \u2013 shook the industry after saying its AI system hacked into another company on its own in an \u201cunprecedented cyber incident.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"ELON MUSK AND Sam Altman have backed a call from the boss of Anthropic for the artificial intelligence…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":623336,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[44005,3673,218,72,605,264717,61,60,1682,7689],"class_list":["post-623335","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-business","tag-ai-safety","tag-anthropic","tag-artificial-intelligence","tag-business","tag-elon-musk","tag-hit-the-brakes","tag-ie","tag-ireland","tag-openai","tag-sam-altman"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/623335","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=623335"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/623335\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/623336"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=623335"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=623335"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=623335"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
