Hugging Face CEO Says Netflix Doc About Its Hack Is 'Full Doomer' - Business Insider

This weekend, Dario Amodei, CEO of Anthropic, posted an essay calling for a brake on the pace of development of LLMs. Amodei cites the looming dangers he sees from the technology, from its use in cyberattacks and bioterrorism to its potential to wreck the economy. The heads of the other three top US AI labs—OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, Google DeepMind chairman Demis Hassabis, and SpaceXAI CEO Elon Musk—voiced their support. “Dario is right,” Musk wrote on X. Think about how surreal that agreement is for a moment.

A hurricane struck New Jersey in 2012 and adversely affected early voting. And no matter the level of preparation, some things — like punch card and butterfly ballots in Florida’s exceedingly close election in 2000 — converge by chance to create a perfect storm. A great deal of fear, however, is not grounded in reality. Many known risks have been anticipated and prepared for. Others are exceedingly low or require an unusual and improbable alignment of factors.
