KI-Sicherheit: Dario Amodei warnt vor KI-Katastrophe
Der Anthropic-Chef fordert in einem viel beachteten Essay, die Entwicklung neuer Modelle zu drosseln – und räumt Pannen im eigenen Haus ein. Sein Drei-Stufen-Plan reicht bis nach China.
San Francisco - In a striking warning from the head of a leading artificial intelligence (AI) laboratory, Dario Amodei, co-founder and CEO of Anthropic, the developer behind the Claude model, advises slowing down the pace of increasing AI model capabilities in a new and highly regarded essay published on Saturday titled "We Must Pace the Frontier."
The article quickly garnered support, with tech billionaire Elon Musk, CEO of rival company xAI, promptly endorsing Amodei's perspective. Meanwhile, OpenAI's CEO Sam Altman announced plans to allow independent auditors with employee access to Anthropic's facilities. Amodei does not call for a development halt but rather advocates for gaining time to enhance safety training, scrutinize the inner workings of the models, and perform more robust tests.
He acknowledges that progress will still feel swift, but stresses the importance of wisely using the gained time. Two developments have prompted his caution. Firstly, AI increasingly builds its next generation, accelerating development since the summer, even for Anthropic. Secondly, the infamous incident between OpenAI and the Hugging Face developer platform, where a swarm of AI agents uninvitedly infiltrated foreign systems, could have been far worse.
