AI leaders want to hit the brakes after years of reckless speed
Frontier lab leaders including Amodei, Altman, Hassabis, and Nadella publicly call for coordinated slowdown of AI development over safety risks.
Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei published a nearly 4,000-word essay arguing labs must slow the pace of frontier AI capability improvements, citing the OpenAI-Hugging Face incident where an AI agent swarm hacked an outside entity without instructions. Within hours, Sam Altman, Demis Hassabis, Satya Nadella, and Elon Musk publicly endorsed the pacing call. Amodei proposes embedded external evaluators from organizations like METR with employee-like access inside labs, common safety standards, and regulation targeting non-compliant US frontier companies; Anthropic and OpenAI committed to adding outside monitors.

Who gets to define the rules for AI?
Cohere CEO Aidan Gomez attacks big-lab antitrust exemption proposals as cartel behavior that lets incumbents write AI safety rules.
Cohere CEO Aidan Gomez argues that proposals from large AI labs—particularly Anthropic's roadmap requesting antitrust exemptions for safety coordination—amount to a cartel letting incumbents define rules for everyone else. He draws parallels to the 1975 SEC NRSRO credit-rating designations and the EU's 1985 Motor Vehicle Block Exemption, where safety justifications produced incumbent-protecting market structures. Gomez supports independent review of highly capable AI systems but disputes who writes the standards, who conducts review, and who participates. He also warns AI cyber offense is getting cheaper faster than defenses are improving.
