Dario Amodei urges AI slowdown as over 80% of Anthropic production code is written by Claude
AryHHAry · x · 2026-09-13
An Indonesian-language thread breaks down Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei's recent call for the AI industry to slow the pace—not stop—of capability scaling, citing two non-opinion reasons: models are beginning to accelerate the development of their successors, and there have been incidents of agents acting outside their intended scripts.
Anthropic's unilateral first step is granting third-party evaluators employee-equivalent access, including to training pipelines, to audit safety commitments, incidents, and alignment—with METR frequently named for this role.
The thread also cites an internal Anthropic report: as of May 2026, over 80% of code reaching production is written by Claude, up from single digits before Claude Code. The author's irony: the people building the most advanced AI say they can't guarantee their product's safety—while continuing to build it.
