  "account": "Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei partially agreed that artificial intelligence could potentially \"kill humans,\" but maintained that if the right path is chosen, the likelihood of something going wrong is very low. In an interview with CNN's Anderson Cooper, Amodei stated he \"agrees more than he disagrees\" with former Anthropic researcher Jacob Coxon, who recently resigned and warned of the risks posed by advanced AI. Coxon noted that while he wasn't criticizing Anthropic, he was highlighting the industry's rapid pace. Amodei emphasized that discussions about AI risks often focus on \"unconditional probabilities\" rather than considering the paths that lead to success or failure. He suggested focusing on the industry's choices and working together to take the right paths, rather than rushing forward. Both OpenAI's Sam Altman and Elon Musk supported Amodei's view, with Altman committing to having independent evaluators with employee-like access to AI systems.",
