Anthropic's AI models and chatbot
As impressive as today's AI chatbots are, interacting with them might not leave you with an I, Robot level of existential sci-fi dread (yet). But according to Dario Amodei, the CEO of Anthropic, an AI research company, there's a real risk that AI models become too autonomous—especially as they start accessing the internet and controlling robots. (Anthropic's offices even feature a framed picture of a giant robot destroying a city.)
Hundreds of other AI leaders and scientists have also acknowledged the existential risk posed by AI. To help address this risk, Anthropic did something counterintuitive: they decided to develop a safer AI model.
