Anthropic warns about itself, Open AI pulls back its latest AI model – but Donald Trump wants to step on the gas with artificial intelligence
US technology companies are increasingly warning about the dangers of AI. The US President describes this approach as "a scam". In fact, there is likely a lot of self-interest behind the warnings.
US technology firms, including Anthropic and Open AI, are warning about the dangers of artificial intelligence (AI). Anthropic's planned Initial Public Offering (IPO) could be the largest ever, valued at over $2 trillion, and the company's prospectus highlights "existential risks" associated with its AI technology. More than 20 top executives and scientists, including Anthropic's Jack Clark and Microsoft's Eric Horvitz, have published an article discussing the potential for an "intelligence explosion" that could bring extreme risks.
US President Donald Trump has dismissed these warnings as a "hoax" and expressed support for rapid AI development, saying the US should "move forward and win".
