Asked what that means, Amodei said, &#8220;It doesn&#8217;t mean we need to panic today. It doesn&#8217;t mean we need to shut it all down. But I would say it&#8217;s a warning sign. It&#8217;s a warning sign that we need to slow down.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>In an essay published Saturday, Amodei wrote that the entire tech industry must work together to <a href=\"https:\/\/darioamodei.com\/post\/we-must-pace-the-frontier\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">&#8220;slow the pace&#8221; of AI capabilities<\/a>. <\/p>\n<p>Asked if Anthropic is going to stop releasing more advanced models, Amodei replied, &#8220;It doesn&#8217;t mean that. What it means is that we need to make sure that every generation of models that we release is properly tested.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>To attempt that, Amodei says Anthropic will now give independent evaluators permanent &#8220;employee-like&#8221; access to their models. &#8220;Whenever anyone builds an AI model, there&#8217;s a third-party evaluator who can verify whether that company is following the safety practices that they&#8217;re committed to \u2013 it&#8217;s like a food inspector,&#8221; he said. <\/p>\n<p>But AI experts say this is hardly enough, and Amodei agrees, claiming he supports federal regulation. So far, proposed legislation ranges from an outright ban on superintelligence, to a mandatory &#8220;kill switch&#8221; that could shut down risky AI.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The AI kill switch could be a good idea,&#8221; Amodei said. &#8220;But I don&#8217;t think banning it, completely banning it, is the right approach. One, the idea that we would never get the incredible benefits, never get the medical cures, that doesn&#8217;t sit right with me. Second, this technology will be built in other countries, including authoritarian countries.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Asked if the U.S. should slow down AI development if China would not, Amodei replied, &#8220;This is the toughest dilemma. This is the toughest aspect of our situation.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>He looks to the nuclear arms agreements with the former Soviet Union as a potential model, but cautions even his expectations are low. &#8220;The more long-term thing would be working together to put a speed limit on the rate of AI progress,&#8221; he said. &#8220;I think that&#8217;s going to be very difficult, because the incentives to pull ahead in the military advantage that you get from that are so large. And honestly, I don&#8217;t know if it&#8217;s possible, but we should try.&#8221;\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>With the fate of humanity seemingly at risk, how much personal responsibility does Amodei feel about where we are going? &#8220;My view here is, it has always been very strange that this technology is being built by a private company,&#8221; he said. &#8220;People ask me that question all the time: Why isn&#8217;t this being built by government? And the strangest thing about it is, I agree with them. I&#8217;m uncomfortable.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Asked if he is willing to give up the technology to the government, Amodei responded, &#8220;To the right combination of governments. The worry I have \u2013     I am concerned that one single government could abuse this technology just as easily as a single company could. But I think a combination of democratically-elected governments, I don&#8217;t know about handing over, but some kind of oversight, some kind of joint governance.&#8221;\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The question is no longer whether AI will become powerful enough to require constraint, but who in power will take action.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;If we build in the right way, I think the probability of something bad happening is very low,&#8221; he said. &#8220;If we build in the wrong way, the probability of something bad happening is very high.&#8221;<\/p>\n<hr\/>\n<p><strong>WEB EXCLUSIVE: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/video\/extended-interview-dario-amodei\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">Watch an extended interview with Dario Amodei (Video)<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<figure class=\"embed embed--type-video embed--type-content_video is-video embed--float-left embed--size-medium\"><figcaption class=\"embed__caption-container\">\n                              <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/video\/extended-interview-dario-amodei\/\" class=\"embed__headline-link\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\"><\/p>\n<p>          <span class=\"embed__icon\"><br \/>\n            <svg viewbox=\"0 0 32 32\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n              <use xlink:href=\"#icon-video\"\/>\n            <\/svg><br \/>\n          <\/span><\/p>\n<p>          <span class=\"embed__headline\">Extended Interview: Dario Amodei<\/span><\/p>\n<p>          <span class=\"embed__video-duration\">23:47<\/span><\/p>\n<p>                      <\/a><\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<hr\/>\n<p><strong>For more info:\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0<br \/>Story produced by John Goodwin and Dustin Stephens.
