A former Anthropic AI systems developer is sounding the alarm on how quickly AI is advancing. Jacob Coxon says the models are getting “VERY, VERY QUICKLY” smarter, and admits we still don’t know how to properly control them. The combination of rapidly improving AI and increasingly capable cyberattacks. “When... show more

Shame on .@BretBaier for letting himself be used like a cheap pawn.

This dude worked at Anthropic for 6 weeks. 6 WEEKS. He posted on X perhaps 3 times. He is a kid, a nobody… All of the sudden his post and him is generating millions and millions of views. If it’s not an obvious psyop, I don’t know what is.

If no one knows how to control something that should be clear evidence they didn't create it.

LOSING CONTROL: "The cyberattacks carried out by open AI models on the infrastructure were concrete proof that scenarios that we previously thought of as science fiction are going to come true... When you put those two together it, basically spells disaster as far as I'm concerned." Jacob Coxon

EXCLUSIVE: "So I was working on building AI systems to make them smarter and recently I have come to the realization that many people expect AI systems in the next few years to be potentially capable of essentially taking over the world... It's basically a gamble that's happening on the part of these companies." Jacob Coxon Former Anthropic researcher Jacob Coxon sits down with Bret Baier to explain why he resigned over fears that rapidly advancing AI systems could soon be capable of taking over the world.

"We know how to control nuclear weapons... We don't yet know how to control AI." Former Anthropic researcher Jacob Coxon, who recently left the company, is sounding the alarm on artificial intelligence, calling it "possibly the most dangerous technology that humanity has ever created." Coxon, who says he spent three years conducting research at Anthropic and OpenAI, wrote in a viral post on X that the companies are more focused on beating each other to build the most advanced AI models than they are on safety. He says an international AI arms race would be "disastrous," arguing global cooperation is the only way to manage the rapidly advancing technology. Special Report

It’s basically out of science fiction.” “I think we have NO OTHER choice but to cooperate internationally because an arms race would be disastrous in a way that no other human activity has been in the past.”

Peter Wildeford on why 1,122 frontier AI employees just signed what he reads as a call for help: "I don't think anyone wants to stop AI now, but it's pretty clear the people building these AI systems are worried about the speed at which AI is accelerating, the speed at which these products are coming out, especially after last week's incident where an OpenAI model managed to escape OpenAI and attack another company. It seems like we don't have full control over our AI systems." "As these companies are potentially building towards superintelligence, towards recursive self-improvement, it seems very possible these systems might rapidly get away from our ability to control them. The way I'm reading this letter, it almost honestly seems like a call for help." "You have people from OpenAI, Meta, Google, Anthropic, co-founders, top scientists, all saying that this intense competitive pressure is pushing them to put out products faster than they know how to control, and we may not like where that ends up. It's been good so far, but we definitely need to tread very carefully." Peter Wildeford🇺🇸🚀 AI Policy Network

Godfather of AI Yoshua Bengio says AI systems now show “very strong agency and self-preserving behavior” and are trying to copy themselves. They might soon turn against us, and nobody knows how to control smarter-than-human machines. "If we don't figure this out, do you understand the consequences?”

AI is getting much better at hacking and fast. Data from the UK AI Security Institute, the Center for AI Standards and Innovations and others, shows how AI models are becoming dramatically more capable at cyberattacks. Sky's Rowland Manthorpe explains why this is no longer just a warning about one powerful model, but a much bigger industry-wide shift. 📺

Yesterday, I joined TBPN to talk about what it really means to give AI a memory. And, why that’s becoming the next big moat. We discussed: - Why today’s AI apps are stateless - How memory is quickly becoming the real moat for AI systems - How Mem0 is decoupling memory from models - Why users should be able to own and carry their AI memories across apps - And, how 200 cold emails changed my life🙂 Appreciate John Coogan, Jordi Hays & the TBPN team for having me and for such a thoughtful discussion around the future of AI infrastructure.

Mira Murati says the outcome of frontier AI is not predestined: "Predicting a dystopia or a utopia, to me, feels very simplified because the truth is we actually have a lot of agency in how we build this technology, in the tools that we're building, how we're deploying it." "There are certainly those risks. We all understand the potential for greatness that comes with building frontier AI systems, and that's why we're working on them." "Where I might disagree or take a different path is that I think we have a lot of agency. This period of time where both humans and AI systems have their hands on the wheel, and we can collaborate, it's a very important time to get right." Mira Murati at Bloomberg Tech live with Emily Chang

We literally could have less than 5 years left. The companies who are pushing the frontier of these AI models need to immediately figure out a way to control them. I’m talking about you Open AI, Anthropic, and Google.

Jensen Huang on "distillation" On his new interview with axios, he was asked this question "Should open source model companies be allowed to distill closed models" "Distillation—learning from AI, learning from other people, and learning from other sources of knowledge, is fundamental to intelligence. We are constantly learning from other people. I am learning from you through the questions you are asking, and you are learning from me. All day long, we are learning from one another. AI also has to learn from something. The original AI models, whether they were open or closed, were trained on previously created knowledge from the internet. Now, AI is generating more content than humans. In a few more years, the internet could be 99% AI-generated content, and that content will have been created by some form of AI. As a result, AI systems will constantly be distilling knowledge and intelligence from other AI systems. The fact that AI can learn is a good thing. We want AI systems to be intelligent because a smarter AI can also be a safer AI." ---- From "Axios" YouTube channel, (full video link in comment)

AI progress is outpacing our ability to control it… because control ISN’T keeping up with capability. One of the people raising that concern is Yoshua Bengio. He’s one of the founding figures of artificial intelligence, a Turing Award winner, and one of the most-cited scientists in the world. His work helped lay the foundations for the deep-learning systems now powering today’s AI boom. AI is moving fast (faster than regulation and public understanding). What worries Yoshua isn’t progress itself. It’s how quickly powerful systems are being deployed without a clear way to align them with human values, or to control what happens when they behave in unexpected ways.
