Welcome back. The most dire warning on artificial intelligence is coming from someone inside the
industry. A former anthropic researcher voiced his concerns on what AI companies are doing
with the fast-growing technology. And Fox's Caroline Elliott has the latest.
But there's a strong chance that these AIs could take over.
A former anthropic researcher breaking the internet with an apocalyptic warning.
People essentially are aware that the work they are currently doing,
if we don't slow down, could lead to AI takeover by the end of the decade. Could
happen as soon as next year. Some people even say six months.
Jacob Coxon quit the artificial intelligence giant on Tuesday night to share this message
with the world, writing, AI could kill us all by the end of the decade.
Anthropic safety executive Evan Hubinger then doubled down, saying, quote,
we really do earnestly believe AI could kill all humans.
The leaders of both companies have publicly expressed the desire for some sort of slowdown
agreement. They've also publicly expressed extreme fear over the way things are going.
I think the problem is people aren't yet taking them seriously.
The whistleblower says part of the problem is every country,
including the United States and China, want to be first in the AI arms race.
We know how to control nuclear weapons, pretty much. We don't yet know how to control AI.
This is possibly the most dangerous technology that humanity has ever created.
It's basically out of science fiction. I think we have no other choice
but to cooperate internationally. And Republicans and Democrats don't
agree on much, but in this case, both parties want more attention on this.
Democratic Senator Chris Van Hollen said the U.S. needs urgent dialogue with China,
and Republican Congresswoman Anna Paulina Luna called for a special session on AI.
