"Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei doesn't think he should be the one calling the shots on the guardrails surrounding AI. In an interview with Anderson Cooper on CBS News' 60 Minutes that aired on Sunday, the CEO said AI should be more heavily regulated, with fewer decisions about the future of the technology left to just the heads of Big Tech companies. "I think I'm deeply uncomfortable with these decisions being made by a few companies, by a few people," Amodei said."
"Last week, the company said it thwarted "the first documented case of a large-scale AI cyberattack executed without substantial human intervention." There are no federal regulations outlining any prohibitions on AI or surrounding the safety of the technology. While all 50 states have introduced AI-related legislation this year and 38 have adopted or enacted transparency and safety measures, tech industry experts have urged AI companies to approach cybersecurity with a sense of urgency."
Anthropic urges stronger, thoughtful regulation of AI and rejects leaving guardrail decisions to a few companies. The company emphasizes transparency about AI limitations and dangers and reported thwarting "the first documented case of a large-scale AI cyberattack executed without substantial human intervention." No federal AI prohibitions or safety rules currently exist, while all 50 states have proposed AI legislation and 38 have enacted transparency or safety measures. Cybersecurity experts warn of imminent AI-agent attacks. Anthropic outlines short-term risks of bias and misinformation, medium-term risks of harmful scientific or engineering outputs, and long-term existential risks from loss of human agency.
