Dario Amodei, the boss of Anthropic, supports demands for a slowdown in AI development. A former Anthropic researcher told the BBC that AI staff are genuinely frightened over the fate of humanity. OpenAI's boss and Elon Musk are supporting hitting pause on what they call reckless AI development. US President Trump sees it another way. He says whoever wins AI wins, and downplays risks as things that are unlikely.
The warnings come from experts and company chiefs. They want more caution before further advances. Trump's view is very different from these warnings. He argues the race for AI superiority is more important than possible risks.
