Anthropic researcher Jacob Coxon caused a big stir this week after quitting his job over fears that artificial intelligence may lead to the end of humanity. Evan Hubinger, another Anthropic researcher, joined in, estimating there was a 10% chance artificial intelligence “could kill all humans” within the next decade.
TL;DR
- Anthropic researcher Jacob Coxon resigned over fears of artificial intelligence leading to the end of humanity.
- Another Anthropic researcher, Evan Hubinger, estimated a 10% chance of AI killing all humans in the next decade.
- The article questions the validity of the 10% figure, suggesting it sounds made up.
