- →Could influence regulatory pressure and public perception of AI safety.
A coalition of leading AI researchers, including OpenAI’s former head of safety Dario Amodei and researcher Jacob Coxon, has publicly called for a slowdown in the development of artificial intelligence. The group cites six specific axes of concern, ranging from the increasing difficulty of controlling models to the potential for real-world harm. This movement follows recent incidents involving model misuse and internal perceptions of risk that have grown significantly over the past two weeks. The researchers argue that current scaling trajectories may outpace our ability to mitigate catastrophic risks.
