(AP) — The CEO of leading Artificial Intelligence company Anthropic warned against the Trump administration’s recent move to greenlight sales of a powerful Nvidia chip to China, comparing it to selling nuclear weapon technology to North Korea.
Dario Amodei spoke Tuesday in a panel discussion on artificial general intelligence, or AGI, at Davos. AI companies, including Anthropic, are racing to develop AGI, which would outperform human intelligence but could also bring risks that could threaten humanity.
“Are we going to, you know, sell nuclear weapons to North Korea, and, you know, because that produces some profit for Boeing?” he said. “That analogy should just make clear how I see this trade-off.”
