Anthropic: KI-Forscher tritt zurück: „Sie spielen mit unseren Leben“
Nachdem OpenAI sein mächtigstes KI-Modell vorgestellt hat, wirft ein Forscher der Konkurrenzfirma Anthropic hin. Er hält den eigenen Arbeitgeber für unverantwortlich.
In the tech hub of San Francisco, as well as in Düsseldorf, experts behind the development of Artificial Intelligence (AI) are increasingly sounding the alarm about the potential dangers associated with this technology. A recent instance of this concern came from Anthropic employee Jacob Coxon, who resigned from his position and cited the irresponsible actions of AI companies as the reason for his departure.
On the social media platform X, Coxon emphasized that soon, computers will possess capabilities surpassing those of humans. He warned, "People developing AI seriously believe that they could kill everyone by the end of the decade." The 27-year-old Briton also stated, according to the "Wall Street Journal", that the situation could spiral out of control as early as the end of the current year.
Coxon identifies AI capable of self-improvement as a central danger – one that becomes harder to control. Shortly after Coxon's remarks, Evan Hubinger, an Anthropic researcher responsible for ensuring AI aligns with human interests, echoed similar concerns. He personally estimates the risk of AI wiping out humanity to be over ten percent in the coming decade, Hubinger tweeted on X.
