An Anthropic researcher’s doomsday warning comes at a very interesting time
Article image or reusable cover for TechCrunch AI
A researcher at AI company Anthropic resigned this week and warned on the X platform that the company is "rushing straight toward self-improving superintelligence and gambling with our lives." Notably, Anthropic's own safety officer also signed the warning instead of denying it.
This type of AI risk warning has occurred before, but the timing is particularly noteworthy since Anthropic is preparing for an initial public offering.
