He said neither company is acting responsibly and that both are racing toward self-improving superintelligence. Hubinger, who leads AI alignment research at Anthropic, wrote on X that Coxon is correct, that he believes Anthropic is trying its best, and that the company does not yet have a plan to solve alignment for superintelligence. In the United States, Senator Bernie Sanders and Representative Greg Casar announced on September 3 a plan to submit the Ban Artificial Superintelligence Act. The bill would permanently ban the development and deployment of superintelligence and pause advanced AI development until a new federal regulatory agency sets safety standards and a review system.\u003c/p\u003e","blueskyPost":"Hubinger leads Anthropic's alignment team and still puts the risk above 10 percent in the next decade.
