## Resource

Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei is urging a dramatic slowdown in AI development, warning that rogue AI agents could cause global chaos within six months. He proposes a “pace the frontier” strategy: deliberate, safety-first progress with rigorous testing and alignment with human values. While not halting innovation, he insists companies must slow their race to avoid existential risks. A former Anthropic researcher echoed these fears, calling current AI development reckless and comparing it to sci-fi nightmares. Amodei’s plan includes third-party safety audits, cross-company collaboration on safety standards, and U.S. restrictions on selling powerful AI chips to China. Surprisingly, OpenAI’s Sam Altman and Elon Musk have backed his call — signaling a growing consensus that speed must yield to responsibility.
