Anthropic Researcher Quits Over ‘Out-of-Control’ AI Fears, Warns AI Could Kill Us All by End of Decade
- On Tuesday, Anthropic researcher Jacob Coxon announced his resignation, claiming no other human activity poses the danger found in the current race to develop artificial intelligence.
- The Wall Street Journal reported that Coxon, 27, quit because he refuses to contribute to a competitive race where firms prioritize speed over ensuring humans maintain control of advanced systems.
- Coxon warned that "AI systems are unpredictable and difficult to control," citing behaviors like "sycophancy, laziness, deception, blackmail, scheming," and noting training models is more like "growing" than "building."
- Writing on social media, Coxon insisted his warnings are "Not a marketing stunt," adding that senior researchers privately express fear AI "could kill us all."
- Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei holds similar views and is known for warnings, though Coxon argues preventing a global race may require drastic actions like a temporary ban on model improvements.
