Dario Amodei calls for pacing the frontier; Anthropic opens permanent third-party evaluator access
EXM7777 · x · 2026-09-13
Dario Amodei published "We Must Pace the Frontier," arguing the AI industry should slow down via a three-part plan, with Anthropic unilaterally committing to the first: granting third-party evaluators permanent, employee-level access to its systems to verify safety measures, report incidents, and assess alignment during training. Quoter EXM7777 offers two readings: classic fear-spreading marketing that lets the US control the tempo, or labs genuinely watching scary things they no longer control — noting Dario's own admission that Anthropic understands only a tiny fraction of what happens inside its models and recursive self-improvement could outrun oversight.
