An Artificial Intelligence Boss Warns of The Technology’s Risks

One of the most powerful creators of AI, Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei, calls for more regulation and explains how AI could take your job.

Artificial intelligence is arguably the single biggest force shaping our world today.

Dario Amodei, CEO and co-founder of Anthropic which created AI chatbot Claude, says that this technology has the potential to revolutionise our lives but could also cause us significant harm if we don’t regulate it properly.

Amol and Dario discuss how quickly large language models (LLMs) like Claude and OpenAI’s ChatGPT are developing, the threat they could pose to white-collar jobs and how his company’s chatbot helped his sister through a difficult pregnancy.

They also talk about how AI could be used to carry out cyberattacks and why there is a “fundamental difficulty of control” at the centre of these models.
