Lovable CEO backs slowing AI development after warnings about AI safety
Lovable CEO Anton Osika said AI companies should prove they can control powerful systems before pushing ahead with development.
Anton Osika, the beloved CEO of a Swedish startup, has expressed support for slowing down artificial intelligence development until safety can be proven. This stance comes after warnings from Jacob Coxon, a former researcher at both OpenAI and Anthropic, who claimed the companies were recklessly racing towards superintelligence without proper safeguards.
Coxon, now 27, resigned from Anthropic earlier this week and shared his concerns on X. His assertions ignited a heated debate among AI researchers, policymakers, and tech observers. While most leaders at Anthropic and OpenAI have remained mum on the matter, Osika has come out in strong support, urging for public accountability and international coordination to ensure AI remains under control.
Evan Hubinger, who leads Anthropic's alignment team, personally believes there is a greater-than-10% chance AI could lead to human extinction within the next decade, though the company has yet to develop a plan for alignment with superintelligent AI.
