Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei calls for slowing parts of frontier AI development, arguing that risks increase as systems become capable of helping build their own successors. Multiple outlets report that the message is quickly endorsed by other leading figures in the industry.
NDTV and Channel NewsAsia say OpenAI CEO Sam Altman and xAI CEO Elon Musk signal their agreement publicly, with posts on X following Amodei’s comments. CoinDesk similarly frames the agreement as a shared position among top executives, describing the rationale as tied to the pace of progress and the potential for runaway capability gains.
The outlets provide largely consistent accounts of who agrees and the general reasoning, while emphasizing different context. NDTV and CNA focus on the sequence of responses and the role of public statements, including Altman and Musk’s quick replies. CoinDesk adds more detail about why slowdown is considered, linking it to concerns about self-improvement and the need for additional caution and oversight as capabilities rise.
