Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei has published an essay, 'We Must Pace the Frontier,' advocating for a controlled approach to AI development. The proposal suggests a three-step plan to ensure AI models are aligned and safeguarded before further advancements, aiming to mitigate risks while still enabling progress.
“The AI safety discourse, which ratcheted up last weekend, crescendoed on Saturday with a new 3,000-word blog post from Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei called "We Must Pace the Frontier." It is the clearest and most specific call yet for a shift in how the frontier AI labs operate and attempt to slow the pace of development of AI to something more manageable.”
“pacing does not mean halting model training or technical progress, but ensuring companies take adequate time to align and safeguard their models, and for third-party evaluators to confirm this.”
