Anthropic publishes 10,000 word paper suggesting AI can be more dangerous than job cuts

Anthropic has published a 10,000-plus word paper arguing that the real AI danger isn't just job losses, the warning CEO Dario Amodei has been repeating all year. It's recursive self-improvement: AI systems capable of designing and training their own successors. The paper reveals Claude now writes over 80% of Anthropic's code, and floats a coordinated pause on frontier AI development if rival labs agree to verifiably do the same.

Dario Amodei speaks on leaving Sam Altman's OpenAI to start Anthropic

Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei has opened up about why he left OpenAI to co-found Anthropic—and it comes down to two things: scaling laws and safety. Speaking on Nikhil Kamath's podcast WTF Is, Amodei said he saw the potential of scaling AI models as early as 2019 with GPT-2, while most colleagues remained skeptical. He also said he wasn't convinced OpenAI had a genuine commitment to building AI responsibly—so he left to do it his way.

After fighting publicly, Sam Altman & Dario Amodei join hands; send letter to US Congress

AI leaders like Sam Altman and Dario Amodei, usually rivals, have united with other tech CEOs to urge Congress for mandatory screening of DNA synthesis orders. Citing AI's rapid advancement, they warn of eroding knowledge barriers for biological weapons development. The letter advocates for screening requests and recording data to prevent misuse and ensure traceability.

After AI doomsday warnings from CEO, Anthropic quietly files for trillion-dollar IPO

Anthropic has confidentially filed a draft S-1 with the SEC, setting up a fall IPO that could value the Claude maker above $1 trillion. The filing follows a $65 billion Series H round at a $965 billion valuation and lands after months of CEO Dario Amodei warning that AI will wipe out half of entry-level white-collar jobs—a doomsday pitch that has doubled as a roadshow for Anthropic's record-breaking public market debut.

Anthropic's Dario Amodei shares a powerful work tip

Anthropic CEO, who warns of AI-led mass layoffs, calls them a necessity

Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei has shifted from just warning about AI-driven job losses to insisting the policy response to them is a bipartisan necessity. Speaking to WSJ at Davos, the man behind Claude said "ideology will not survive the nature of this technology." His comments arrive as Anthropic chases a reported $900 billion IPO valuation and as rivals like Demis Hassabis and Yann LeCun openly question his doomsday framing.

How close are US, Iran to ending the war?

The United States and Iran have reached an agreement to extend a ceasefire, allow shipping through the Strait of Hormuz and lift a U.S. blockade and some sanctions on Iran, sources ​told Reuters, but the deal has not been finalised.An agreement would represent ​a big step towards ending a war that has pushed the world towards an energy crisis, though the underlying dispute over Iran's nuclear programme ​would only be thrashed out in talks over subsequent weeks.Where Have The Discussions Got To?Following a ceasefire in early April, the two sides have remained at odds on issues including Iran's nuclear ambitions, Israel's war in Lebanon with the Iranian-backed Hezbollah militia, and Tehran's demands for the lifting of sanctions and the release of frozen assets.After weeks of mainly indirect talks, four sources familiar with the matter said on Thursday that the U.S. and Iran had ‌agreed a memorandum of understanding ⁠that would ⁠halt the war and give negotiators 60 days to reach a final deal.Read More: Bigger proportion of non-Iran ships crossing Hormuz strait: DataHowever, both sides have said several times before that they believed an agreement was close but without ever concluding an agreement. The position of Israel, which launched the air war on ​Iran on February 28 alongside the United States, is central to any deal but its role in the agreement is unclear.U.S. President Donald Trump has not yet approved the deal, according to the sources. Vice ​President JD Vance said on Thursday: "We're not there, but we're very close and we're going to keep working on it".Iran has not yet formally commented, but the semi-official Tasnim news agency cited a source close to the negotiating team as saying the text of the agreement had not yet been finalised or confirmed.Iranian sources have previously said a framework deal is only about ending the war ​on all fronts, establishing a 30-day framework for international and Iranian movement through the Strait of Hormuz and possibly providing some ⁠financial relief.There would ‌then be negotiations on the more difficult issues, such as the status of Iran's highly enriched uranium and details concerning the strait, and the sequencing of ​the many points in the ​preliminary deal such as sanctions relief and security.The last deal over the nuclear programme - struck in 2015 and torn up by Trump in 2018 - took ⁠years of negotiations between large teams of technical experts.What Are The Main Issues?Hormuz And Gulf BlockadeIran's closure of ​the Strait of Hormuz, the conduit for a fifth of global supplies of oil and liquefied natural gas, has pushed up oil ​prices. Reopening the strait is the U.S. priority and Iran's main point of leverage, but it could take time.Many vessels are stuck in the Gulf and Iran says it has laid some sea mines that could be difficult to locate.The U.S. blockade on Iranian ports is hitting Iran's own exports and state revenue. Lifting this is one of Tehran's main goals. A sensitive issue could be how far U.S. forces withdraw.NuclearThe U.S. says it believes Iran wants to build a nuclear bomb. Iran has always denied this, saying its atomic programme is for peaceful purposes only. The focus is on its enrichment of uranium, which generates fuel for nuclear power but can also make material for a warhead.The nuclear question is extremely complicated. Iran might eventually agree to dilute part of its highly enriched uranium ‌in a friendly country into uranium enriched to 5% purity and then have it returned, Iranian sources said.Read more: US inflation hits three-year high in April as Iran war fuels energy price surgeBut many other issues would still need to be addressed: how long the nuclear program would be halted, whether nuclear sites would be dismantled, what happens to stockpiles of uranium enriched to 20% and 5%, the ​future of Iran's advanced centrifuges ​and research and development programs and the rules governing an ⁠inspections regime, among others.Ballistic MissilesA prominent U.S. demand before the war was that Iran limit the range of its ballistic missiles so that they could not reach Israel. Iran has always said its right to conventional weapons is non-negotiable and that it still has a large arsenal.Sanctions And Frozen AssetsIran's economy has been hurt by sanctions for years, contributing to the nationwide unrest in ​January. Tehran badly needs them to be lifted and tens of billions of dollars of Iranian oil revenues frozen in foreign banks to be released. It also wants reparations for war damage.The United States has resisted this, with Trump having lambasted former president Barack Obama for having returned some frozen assets to Iran under the 2015 nuclear deal. Some media have reported that the latest draft agreement would include an investment programme for Iran.LebanonIran has repeatedly said that Israel's war against its main ally Hezbollah in Lebanon must be included in any deal. Israel and Lebanon agreed a ceasefire last month but both Israel and Hezbollah accuse each other of repeated violations and Israel's military is ramping up its campaign in southern Lebanon. Israel would oppose any U.S.-Iran agreement that limits its ability to act in Lebanon.
