Dario Amodei calls for pacing frontier AI with 3-step plan, third-party access pledge
basedjensen · x · 2026-09-13
- Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei published a new essay, "We Must Pace the Frontier," arguing the AI industry should slow down frontier development, backed by a three-part plan.
- Anthropic is unilaterally committing to the first step: giving third-party evaluators permanent, employee-level access to its systems to verify safety measures, report incidents, and assess alignment.
- The reply pushes back sharply: if AI could cure most major diseases in 5–10 years, a frontier slowdown would need "a consent form," starting with terminal patients who have six months left.
