A colleague at Anthropic responded by saying the company has no plan to address alignment risks from superintelligence

Anthropic researcher Jacob Coxon, who raised alarm about OpenAI and Anthropic, has quit, warning that AI labs are 'gambling with our lives'. Coxon, 27, declared his departure in a series of X posts, saying both Anthropic and its rival OpenAI are failing to act responsibly as they race to build advanced AI systems.

He went from obscure AI researcher to notable independent AI critic literally overnight.

Jacob Coxon is a 27-year-old British AI researcher who formerly worked for OpenAI and Anthropic, the companies behind ChatGPT and Claude.

AI researcher Jacob Coxon warned that AI could "kill us all by the end of the decade." Is that enough to move Congress?

Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei supports ex-employee Jacob Coxon's warning on unregulated AI, emphasizing global cooperation to prevent rogue bots and mitigate industry-wide risks.

Jacob Coxon warns that AI could pose an existential threat to humanity after resigning from Anthropic over concerns about the rapid development of advanced AI systems.

"Sorry, but asking Jacob about AI extinction risk is like asking your AC guy about climate change," Hugging Face CEO Clement Delangue wrote on X.
