Artificial intelligence researcher Coxon resigned from Anthropic: "They are in an uncontrolled race"

Stating that he has been working as a researcher within the artificial intelligence giants OpenAI and Anthropic for the last three years, Coxon announced in his statement on the social media platform of US-based company X that he resigned from Anthropic, arguing that both companies did not act responsibly enough.

Coxon stated that companies are in an uncontrolled race to reach self-improving super intelligence and said, "Do not underestimate the power of this technology. These will soon become superhuman systems that can hack anything, transform any area overnight, and obtain real power and resources. We have witnessed the progress in each of these areas and this process is not slowing down." made his assessment.

Claiming that industry employees who develop artificial intelligence models seriously believe that these systems can "kill" humanity within 10 years, Coxon claimed that although managers speak moderately in public, they experience great fear behind closed doors.

Coxon argued that Anthropic's management was fixated on the idea that "they had to get there first, despite the risk," calling it "too arrogant a gamble to run from a private company's internal communications app."
