Andy Masley says he's increasingly worried about the pace of AI progress and doesn't think society is reacting nearly fast enough. The quoted post goes further: it claims Anthropic's central plan is to keep accelerating AI capabilities until we see decades of progress per year, which — given our limited ability to understand or control AI systems — the author calls extremely reckless, arguing stopping this should be civil society's and the US government's top priority.
