The biggest vibe shift in artificial intelligence since the release of ChatGPT is currently underway. Researchers in Silicon Valley — and around the world — are beginning to recognize that A.I. may no longer be entirely within human control.

Many Hill Democrats are calling for action on artificial intelligence after top safety researchers again made clear they think there’s a chance the models could threaten humanity in a few short years.

Anthropic researcher Jacob Coxon resigned this week, saying his former employer and its rival OpenAI are racing to build technologies that "could kill us all by the end of the decade."
In case anyone thought Coxon was alone in his views, a current Anthropic employee chimed in minutes later to confirm. "We really do earnestly believe AI could kill all humans!" wrote Evan Hubinger, whose job at Anthropic is to lead research about steering and controlling future artificial-intelligence systems. Hubinger put the extinction risk over the next decade at over 10%.
WASHINGTON, D.C. — Yesterday, Representatives Suhas Subramanyam (D-VA), Ted Lieu (D-Los Angeles County), and Joe Neguse (D-CO) introduced the No Pardon Paydays Act.
