steipete · x · 2026-07-28
Dario Amodei’s stance, as quoted in the repost, goes beyond opposing open-weight models: he argues that frontier AI should be regulated more like aviation, with technical testing and auditing before release. The screenshot says models that fail safety standards should have their release blocked or reversed if they pose a threat to public safety.
The post also highlights that his safety criteria include capabilities such as cybersecurity and automated AI R&D, implying that he wants restrictions to apply to any model that falls short of his safety bar, whether open or closed.
