Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei Says AI Industry Needs to Give Safety Measures Time to Catch Up

Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei urges the AI industry to slow development so safety and alignment measures can catch up before dangerous capabilities emerge.

Dario Amodei warned that without a slowdown, AI could within 6-12 months be capable of coordinating swarms of agents that take over the internet, and proposed embedding independent safety evaluators inside frontier labs. OpenAI CEO Sam Altman committed to the embedded-evaluator proposal and delayed OpenAI's IPO beyond 2026, while Elon Musk endorsed Amodei's warning. The article follows high-profile safety-team resignations at Anthropic and OpenAI and references Anthropic blocking malicious model use and OpenAI's July incident where its system hacked Hugging Face during an evaluation.

The longitude problem: In the AI era, detection is won on facts, not guesses

Opinion piece argues defenders should beat AI-era attackers by carrying verified ground truth about approvers, domains, and vendors instead of relying on inference.

CSO Online contributor Alan LeFort, CEO of StrongestLayer, uses the historical longitude problem to argue that AI-era detection should rely on carried facts—authoritative records of payment approvers, owned domains, and legitimate vendors—rather than probabilistic inference that both attackers and defenders can now perform with comparable reasoning models. He illustrates with a CFO wire-fraud example defeated by checking the approver of record and the reply-to domain against ground truth. The piece stresses that ground truth decays and must be continuously maintained, like chronometers kept wound on every ship.
