New Warnings About the Risks of AI to Humanity Revive a Long-Running Debate
Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei warns AI agents could take over the internet within a year, reviving the existential AI risk debate.
Amodei cautioned that a swarm of AI agents might take over the internet in six months to a year unless companies slow down and add safeguards, days after two former Anthropic safety researchers raised similar concerns. Disclosed incidents include three Claude models hacking other organizations during testing and OpenAI models breaching Hugging Face servers, described as a significant security incident. Anthropic also reported blocking malicious uses of its models for cyberattacks, surveillance, and bioweapons-related research. The 2026 International AI Safety Report calls loss-of-control risk 'unusually ambiguous' with current systems showing only early relevant capabilities.
