ANTHROPIC π₯: Dario Amodei says the industry should slow capability gains so safety can keep up.
Proposed action plan π
Step 1: embedded evaluators with employee-level access to check safety, incidents, and alignment during training.
Step 2: US-lab coordination and regulation, while widening the China gap for 3β5 years via chips, anti-distillation, and model-theft security.
Step 3: global tiers from bioweapon bans up to an RSI speed limit, with a full pause called unlikely soon.
