Dramatic insider warnings over AI fall flat with some in Silicon Valley

Anthropic researcher Jacob Coxon's resignation warning of AI existential risk drew Silicon Valley skepticism, while Amodei called for slowing development and global regulation.

Coxon, 27, who left Anthropic saying AI builders are 'gambling with our lives' with systems that can 'hack anything', was backed by Anthropic team lead Evan Hubinger, who put extinction risk above 10% within a decade. Executives including Grindr CEO George Arison and Nvidia's Jensen Huang dismissed the warnings as hype, with Arison directing engineers to stop using Anthropic technology. Dario Amodei posted an essay calling for slower AI development and global regulation, while Senator Bernie Sanders co-sponsored the Ban Artificial Superintelligence Act proposing a temporary pause on advanced AI development.

CIA official touts agency’s Cyber Mission Center in capture of Venezuela’s Maduro

CIA deputy director credits the Cyber Mission Center's cyber operations for the intelligence picture behind Nicolás Maduro's capture.

CIA Deputy Director Michael Ellis said at the Billington Cybersecurity Summit that cyber operations built the 'flawless intelligence picture' enabling US special forces to locate Nicolás Maduro in his Caracas bunker and apprehend him within four minutes of landing during January's Operation Absolute Resolve. Director John Ratcliffe elevated the Center for Cyber Intelligence to a standalone mission center, which Ellis said smooths reporting chains and aligns resources. Ellis also said AI will 'permeate' every aspect of intelligence work, with human-in-the-loop safeguards and multi-vendor approaches to avoid model lock-in. The US has unsealed narcoterrorism charges against Maduro and his wife, who are seeking dismissal under immunity claims.
